Lets's calculate GCF of 931,245
7 | 931, 245 |
7 | 133, 35 |
19, 5 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 7 x 7 = 49
Now, list down the factors of 931
:1,7,19,49,133,931
Now, list down the factors of 245
:1,5,7,35,49,245
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 931,245 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 931,245 is 49.
Lets's calculate LCM of 146,518
2 | 146, 518 |
73, 259 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 73 x 259 = 37814
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 49/37814
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 931/146,245/518 is 49/37814
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 146,518 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(146,518) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(146,518) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(146,518) = ( 146 × 518 ) / 2
LCM(146,518) = 75628 / 2
LCM(146,518) = 37814
