3 | 351, 423 |
3 | 117, 141 |
39, 47 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 3 x 3 = 18
Now, list down the factors of 702
:1,2,3,6,9,13,18,26,27,39,54,78,117,234,351,702
Now, list down the factors of 846
:1,2,3,6,9,18,47,94,141,282,423,846
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 702,846 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 702,846 is 18.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,485
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 11155
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/11155
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 702/23,846/485 is 18/11155
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 23,485 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,485) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,485) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,485) = ( 23 × 485 ) / 1
LCM(23,485) = 11155 / 1
LCM(23,485) = 11155
