Lets's calculate GCF of 889,254
127 | 889, 254 |
7, 2 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 127 = 127
Now, list down the factors of 889
:1,7,127,889
Now, list down the factors of 254
:1,2,127,254
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 889,254 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 889,254 is 127.
Lets's calculate LCM of 677,457
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 309389
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 127/309389
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 889/677,254/457 is 127/309389
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 677,457 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(677,457) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(677,457) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(677,457) = ( 677 × 457 ) / 1
LCM(677,457) = 309389 / 1
LCM(677,457) = 309389
