Now, list down the factors of 890
:1,2,5,10,89,178,445,890
Now, list down the factors of 268
:1,2,4,67,134,268
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 890,268 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 890,268 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 533,251
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 133783
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/133783
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 890/533,268/251 is 2/133783
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 533,251 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(533,251) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(533,251) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(533,251) = ( 533 × 251 ) / 1
LCM(533,251) = 133783 / 1
LCM(533,251) = 133783
