Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1312,6555 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1312,6555 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 257,406
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 104342
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/104342
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1312/257,6555/406 is 1/104342
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 257,406 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(257,406) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(257,406) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(257,406) = ( 257 × 406 ) / 1
LCM(257,406) = 104342 / 1
LCM(257,406) = 104342
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
