Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 245,8106 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 245,8106 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 578,259
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 149702
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/149702
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 245/578,8106/259 is 7/149702
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 578,259 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(578,259) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(578,259) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(578,259) = ( 578 × 259 ) / 1
LCM(578,259) = 149702 / 1
LCM(578,259) = 149702
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
