Lets's calculate GCF of 950,205
5 | 950, 205 |
190, 41 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 950
:1,2,5,10,19,25,38,50,95,190,475,950
Now, list down the factors of 205
:1,5,41,205
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 950,205 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 950,205 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 536,475
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 254600
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/254600
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 950/536,205/475 is 5/254600
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 536,475 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(536,475) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(536,475) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(536,475) = ( 536 × 475 ) / 1
LCM(536,475) = 254600 / 1
LCM(536,475) = 254600
