Lets's calculate GCF of 821,232
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 821
:1,821
Now, list down the factors of 232
:1,2,4,8,29,58,116,232
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 821,232 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 821,232 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 517,489
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 252813
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/252813
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 821/517,232/489 is 1/252813
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 517,489 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(517,489) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(517,489) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(517,489) = ( 517 × 489 ) / 1
LCM(517,489) = 252813 / 1
LCM(517,489) = 252813
