Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5471,4865 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5471,4865 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 501,156
3 | 501, 156 |
167, 52 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 167 x 52 = 26052
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/26052
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5471/501,4865/156 is 1/26052
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 501,156 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(501,156) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(501,156) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(501,156) = ( 501 × 156 ) / 3
LCM(501,156) = 78156 / 3
LCM(501,156) = 26052
