Lets's calculate GCF of 820,820
2 | 820, 820 |
2 | 410, 410 |
5 | 205, 205 |
41 | 41, 41 |
1, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 41 = 820
Now, list down the factors of 820
:1,2,4,5,10,20,41,82,164,205,410,820
Now, list down the factors of 820
:1,2,4,5,10,20,41,82,164,205,410,820
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 820,820 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 820,820 is 820.
Lets's calculate LCM of 438,764
2 | 438, 764 |
219, 382 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 219 x 382 = 167316
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 820/167316
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 820/438,820/764 is 820/167316
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 438,764 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(438,764) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(438,764) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(438,764) = ( 438 × 764 ) / 2
LCM(438,764) = 334632 / 2
LCM(438,764) = 167316
