Lets's calculate GCF of 879,250
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 879
:1,3,293,879
Now, list down the factors of 250
:1,2,5,10,25,50,125,250
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 879,250 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 879,250 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 57,170
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9690
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9690
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 879/57,250/170 is 1/9690
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 57,170 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(57,170) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(57,170) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(57,170) = ( 57 × 170 ) / 1
LCM(57,170) = 9690 / 1
LCM(57,170) = 9690
