Lets's calculate GCF of 614,132
2 | 614, 132 |
307, 66 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 614
:1,2,307,614
Now, list down the factors of 132
:1,2,3,4,6,11,12,22,33,44,66,132
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 614,132 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 614,132 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 277,587
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 162599
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/162599
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 614/277,132/587 is 2/162599
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 277,587 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(277,587) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(277,587) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(277,587) = ( 277 × 587 ) / 1
LCM(277,587) = 162599 / 1
LCM(277,587) = 162599
