Lets's calculate GCF of 776,291
97 | 776, 291 |
8, 3 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 97 = 97
Now, list down the factors of 776
:1,2,4,8,97,194,388,776
Now, list down the factors of 291
:1,3,97,291
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 776,291 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 776,291 is 97.
Lets's calculate LCM of 251,598
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 150098
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 97/150098
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 776/251,291/598 is 97/150098
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 251,598 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(251,598) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(251,598) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(251,598) = ( 251 × 598 ) / 1
LCM(251,598) = 150098 / 1
LCM(251,598) = 150098
