Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 250,3106 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 250,3106 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 254,626
2 | 254, 626 |
127, 313 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 127 x 313 = 79502
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/79502
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 250/254,3106/626 is 2/79502
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 254,626 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(254,626) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(254,626) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(254,626) = ( 254 × 626 ) / 2
LCM(254,626) = 159004 / 2
LCM(254,626) = 79502
