Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2572,5165 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2572,5165 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 508,652
2 | 508, 652 |
2 | 254, 326 |
127, 163 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 127 x 163 = 82804
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/82804
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2572/508,5165/652 is 1/82804
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 508,652 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(508,652) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(508,652) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(508,652) = ( 508 × 652 ) / 4
LCM(508,652) = 331216 / 4
LCM(508,652) = 82804
