Lets's calculate GCF of 710,398
2 | 710, 398 |
355, 199 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 710
:1,2,5,10,71,142,355,710
Now, list down the factors of 398
:1,2,199,398
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 710,398 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 710,398 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 256,233
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 59648
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/59648
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 710/256,398/233 is 2/59648
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 256,233 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(256,233) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(256,233) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(256,233) = ( 256 × 233 ) / 1
LCM(256,233) = 59648 / 1
LCM(256,233) = 59648
