13 | 65, 13 |
5, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 11 x 13 = 143
Now, list down the factors of 715
:1,5,11,13,55,65,143,715
Now, list down the factors of 143
:1,11,13,143
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 715,143 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 715,143 is 143.
Lets's calculate LCM of 592,374
2 | 592, 374 |
296, 187 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 296 x 187 = 110704
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 143/110704
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 715/592,143/374 is 143/110704
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 592,374 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(592,374) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(592,374) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(592,374) = ( 592 × 374 ) / 2
LCM(592,374) = 221408 / 2
LCM(592,374) = 110704
