Now, list down the factors of 650
:1,2,5,10,13,25,26,50,65,130,325,650
Now, list down the factors of 237
:1,3,79,237
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 650,237 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 650,237 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 993,968
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 961224
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/961224
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 650/993,237/968 is 1/961224
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 993,968 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(993,968) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(993,968) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(993,968) = ( 993 × 968 ) / 1
LCM(993,968) = 961224 / 1
LCM(993,968) = 961224
