Denominators are 623,993
The GCF of 78,70 is 2 .
LCM of 623,993 is 618639.
The greatest common factor of 78/623,70/993 = [GCF of 78,70]/[LCM of 623,993]= 2/618639
Therefore, the GCF of 78/623,70/993 is 2/618639.
To find the highest common factor of 78,70, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 78 are 1, 2, 3, 6, 13, 26, 39, 78
The factors of 70 are 1, 2, 5, 7, 10, 14, 35, 70
The HCF of 78,70 is 2.
Lets's calculate GCF of 78,70
2 | 78, 70 |
39, 35 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 78
:1,2,3,6,13,26,39,78
Now, list down the factors of 70
:1,2,5,7,10,14,35,70
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 78,70 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 78,70 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 623,993
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 618639
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/618639
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 78/623,70/993 is 2/618639
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 623,993 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(623,993) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(623,993) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(623,993) = ( 623 × 993 ) / 1
LCM(623,993) = 618639 / 1
LCM(623,993) = 618639
