Lets's calculate GCF of 931,266
7 | 931, 266 |
19 | 133, 38 |
7, 2 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 7 x 19 = 133
Now, list down the factors of 931
:1,7,19,49,133,931
Now, list down the factors of 266
:1,2,7,14,19,38,133,266
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 931,266 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 931,266 is 133.
Lets's calculate LCM of 45,438
3 | 45, 438 |
15, 146 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 15 x 146 = 6570
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 133/6570
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 931/45,266/438 is 133/6570
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 45,438 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(45,438) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(45,438) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(45,438) = ( 45 × 438 ) / 3
LCM(45,438) = 19710 / 3
LCM(45,438) = 6570
