Now, list down the factors of 893
:1,19,47,893
Now, list down the factors of 731
:1,17,43,731
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 893,731 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 893,731 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 38,575
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21850
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/21850
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 893/38,731/575 is 1/21850
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 38,575 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(38,575) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(38,575) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(38,575) = ( 38 × 575 ) / 1
LCM(38,575) = 21850 / 1
LCM(38,575) = 21850
