Now, list down the factors of 5788
:1,2,4,1447,2894,5788
Now, list down the factors of 1601
:1,1601
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5788,1601 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5788,1601 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 258,193
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 49794
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/49794
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5788/258,1601/193 is 1/49794
The formula of LCM is LCM(a1,a2,a3....,an) = ( a1 × a2 × a3 × .... × an) / GCF(a1,a2,a3....,an) x common factors(if more than 2 numbers have common factors).
We need to calculate greatest common factor of 258,193 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(258,193) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(258,193) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(258,193) = ( 258 × 193 ) / 1
LCM(258,193) = 49794 / 1
LCM(258,193) = 49794
