:1,2,311,622
Now, list down the factors of 536
:1,2,4,8,67,134,268,536
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 622,536 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 622,536 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 524,251
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 131524
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/131524
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 622/524,536/251 is 2/131524
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 524,251 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(524,251) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(524,251) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(524,251) = ( 524 × 251 ) / 1
LCM(524,251) = 131524 / 1
LCM(524,251) = 131524
