Lets's calculate GCF of 916,458
2 | 916, 458 |
229 | 458, 229 |
2, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 229 = 458
Now, list down the factors of 916
:1,2,4,229,458,916
Now, list down the factors of 458
:1,2,229,458
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 916,458 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 916,458 is 458.
Lets's calculate LCM of 550,452
2 | 550, 452 |
275, 226 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 275 x 226 = 124300
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 458/124300
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 916/550,458/452 is 458/124300
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 550,452 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(550,452) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(550,452) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(550,452) = ( 550 × 452 ) / 2
LCM(550,452) = 248600 / 2
LCM(550,452) = 124300
