1,5,1031,5155
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2707,5155 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2707,5155 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 550,722
2 | 550, 722 |
275, 361 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 275 x 361 = 198550
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/198550
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2707/550,5155/722 is 1/198550
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 550,722 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(550,722) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(550,722) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(550,722) = ( 550 × 722 ) / 2
LCM(550,722) = 397100 / 2
LCM(550,722) = 198550
