In number theory, the product of two positive integers will equal the product of their GCF and LCM. Dividing that product by one of them will give you the other.
Finding the GCF of the numerator and denominator and dividing them both by it will give you the simplest form of the fraction.
As a general principle, you can find the LCM of two numbers by dividing their product by their GCF. This one won't work. The product of any two numbers with 5 as a common factor would have to end in 5 or 0.
i use a GCF to simplify a fraction by dividing it into both the numerator and the denominator.
You can find the GCF of two numbers by dividing their product by their LCM. The LCM of 30 and 42 is 210. What is their GCF? 30 x 42 = 1260 divided by 210 = 6 The GCF of 30 and 42 is 6.
The GCF is 2.
Finding the GCF of the numerator and denominator and dividing them both by it will give you the simplest form of the fraction.
If you are dividing the numerator and the denominator by the same number (the GCF), it is the same as dividing the fraction by 1, which will leave it unchanged and create the same product.
As a general principle, you can find the LCM of two numbers by dividing their product by their GCF. This one won't work. The product of any two numbers with 5 as a common factor would have to end in 5 or 0.
2 x 12 = 24, but there's an easier way if you remember that the product of the GCF and LCM of a pair of numbers will always be equal to the product of the two numbers.
The LCM is their product. The GCF of 4 and 9 is 1. The LCM of 4 and 9 is 36.
The LCM of 49 and 63 is 441. You can find the LCM of a set of numbers by finding their product, and dividing it by their GCF. The product of 49 and 63 is 3087. The GCF of 49 and 63 is 7. (49 = 7*7 and 63 = 7*9, so their GCF is 7.) 3087 / 7 = 441.

The product of the GCF and LCM of a pair of numbers is equal to the product of the numbers.
The GCF is 2.
The product of the GCF and the LCM is the same as the product of the original two numbers. Divide the product of the original numbers by the GCF. The result will be the LCM.
We know the gcf x LCM= AB where A and B are the two numbers. So the product of the two number we seek is 196 7 and 28 have a product of 196 and the gcf of 7 and 28 is 7. The LCM of 28 and 7 is 28. So the two numbers are 7 and 28. ( I started out by dividing 196 by 7 to get the 28)
