Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 463,6596 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 463,6596 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 205,205
5 | 205, 205 |
41 | 41, 41 |
1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 41 x 1 x 1 = 205
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/205
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 463/205,6596/205 is 1/205
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 205,205 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(205,205) = 205
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(205,205) x common factors =205 x 1 = 205
LCM(205,205) = ( 205 × 205 ) / 205
LCM(205,205) = 42025 / 205
LCM(205,205) = 205
