Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 555,478 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 555,478 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 510,394
2 | 510, 394 |
255, 197 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 255 x 197 = 100470
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/100470
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 555/510,478/394 is 1/100470
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 510,394 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(510,394) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(510,394) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(510,394) = ( 510 × 394 ) / 2
LCM(510,394) = 200940 / 2
LCM(510,394) = 100470
