Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 711,5579 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 711,5579 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 284,206
2 | 284, 206 |
142, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 142 x 103 = 29252
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/29252
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 711/284,5579/206 is 1/29252
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 284,206 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(284,206) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(284,206) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(284,206) = ( 284 × 206 ) / 2
LCM(284,206) = 58504 / 2
LCM(284,206) = 29252
