1,2,3,5,6,10,15,30,151,302,453,755,906,1510,2265,4530
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 254,4530 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 254,4530 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 250,464
2 | 250, 464 |
125, 232 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 125 x 232 = 58000
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/58000
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 254/250,4530/464 is 2/58000
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 250,464 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(250,464) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(250,464) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(250,464) = ( 250 × 464 ) / 2
LCM(250,464) = 116000 / 2
LCM(250,464) = 58000
