:1,2,3,4,6,7,11,12,14,21,22,28,33,42,44,66,77,84,132,154,231,308,462,924
Now, list down the factors of 252
:1,2,3,4,6,7,9,12,14,18,21,28,36,42,63,84,126,252
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 924,252 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 924,252 is 84.
Lets's calculate LCM of 515,505
5 | 515, 505 |
103, 101 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 103 x 101 = 52015
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 84/52015
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 924/515,252/505 is 84/52015
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 515,505 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(515,505) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(515,505) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(515,505) = ( 515 × 505 ) / 5
LCM(515,505) = 260075 / 5
LCM(515,505) = 52015
