Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 583,521 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 583,521 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 242,424
2 | 242, 424 |
121, 212 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 121 x 212 = 51304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/51304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 583/242,521/424 is 1/51304
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 242,424 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(242,424) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(242,424) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(242,424) = ( 242 × 424 ) / 2
LCM(242,424) = 102608 / 2
LCM(242,424) = 51304
