1,2,3,6,251,502,753,1506
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5080,1506 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5080,1506 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 367,429
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 157443
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/157443
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5080/367,1506/429 is 2/157443
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 367,429 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(367,429) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(367,429) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(367,429) = ( 367 × 429 ) / 1
LCM(367,429) = 157443 / 1
LCM(367,429) = 157443
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
