:1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,25,32,40,50,80,100,160,200,400,800
Now, list down the factors of 5890
:1,2,5,10,19,31,38,62,95,155,190,310,589,1178,2945,5890
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 800,5890 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 800,5890 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 213,174
3 | 213, 174 |
71, 58 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 71 x 58 = 12354
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/12354
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 800/213,5890/174 is 10/12354
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 213,174 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(213,174) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(213,174) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(213,174) = ( 213 × 174 ) / 3
LCM(213,174) = 37062 / 3
LCM(213,174) = 12354
