Now, list down the factors of 682
:1,2,11,22,31,62,341,682
Now, list down the factors of 982
:1,2,491,982
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 682,982 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 682,982 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 258,499
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 128742
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/128742
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 682/258,982/499 is 2/128742
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 258,499 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(258,499) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(258,499) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(258,499) = ( 258 × 499 ) / 1
LCM(258,499) = 128742 / 1
LCM(258,499) = 128742
