1,2,5,10,47,94,235,470
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 700,470 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 700,470 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 578,192
2 | 578, 192 |
289, 96 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 289 x 96 = 55488
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/55488
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 700/578,470/192 is 10/55488
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 578,192 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(578,192) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(578,192) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(578,192) = ( 578 × 192 ) / 2
LCM(578,192) = 110976 / 2
LCM(578,192) = 55488
