Lets's calculate GCF of 593,131
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 593
:1,593
Now, list down the factors of 131
:1,131
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 593,131 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 593,131 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 64,262
2 | 64, 262 |
32, 131 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 32 x 131 = 8384
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8384
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 593/64,131/262 is 1/8384
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 64,262 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(64,262) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(64,262) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(64,262) = ( 64 × 262 ) / 2
LCM(64,262) = 16768 / 2
LCM(64,262) = 8384
