Lets's calculate GCF of 830,872
2 | 830, 872 |
415, 436 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 830
:1,2,5,10,83,166,415,830
Now, list down the factors of 872
:1,2,4,8,109,218,436,872
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 830,872 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 830,872 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 879,866
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 761214
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/761214
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 830/879,872/866 is 2/761214
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 879,866 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(879,866) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(879,866) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(879,866) = ( 879 × 866 ) / 1
LCM(879,866) = 761214 / 1
LCM(879,866) = 761214
