Lets's calculate GCF of 729,381
3 | 729, 381 |
243, 127 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 729
:1,3,9,27,81,243,729
Now, list down the factors of 381
:1,3,127,381
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 729,381 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 729,381 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 222,568
2 | 222, 568 |
111, 284 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 111 x 284 = 63048
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/63048
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 729/222,381/568 is 3/63048
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 222,568 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(222,568) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(222,568) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(222,568) = ( 222 × 568 ) / 2
LCM(222,568) = 126096 / 2
LCM(222,568) = 63048
