Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 491,5268 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 491,5268 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 320,658
2 | 320, 658 |
160, 329 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 160 x 329 = 105280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/105280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 491/320,5268/658 is 1/105280
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 320,658 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(320,658) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(320,658) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(320,658) = ( 320 × 658 ) / 2
LCM(320,658) = 210560 / 2
LCM(320,658) = 105280
