Lets's calculate GCF of 598,897
13 | 598, 897 |
23 | 46, 69 |
2, 3 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 13 x 23 = 299
Now, list down the factors of 598
:1,2,13,23,26,46,299,598
Now, list down the factors of 897
:1,3,13,23,39,69,299,897
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 598,897 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 598,897 is 299.
Lets's calculate LCM of 95,841
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 79895
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 299/79895
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 598/95,897/841 is 299/79895
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 95,841 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(95,841) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(95,841) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(95,841) = ( 95 × 841 ) / 1
LCM(95,841) = 79895 / 1
LCM(95,841) = 79895
