Now, list down the factors of 238
:1,2,7,14,17,34,119,238
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 769,238 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 769,238 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 402,391
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 157182
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/157182
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 769/402,238/391 is 1/157182
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 402,391 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(402,391) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(402,391) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(402,391) = ( 402 × 391 ) / 1
LCM(402,391) = 157182 / 1
LCM(402,391) = 157182
