Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1145,3525 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1145,3525 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 955,108
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 103140
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/103140
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1145/955,3525/108 is 5/103140
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 955,108 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(955,108) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(955,108) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(955,108) = ( 955 × 108 ) / 1
LCM(955,108) = 103140 / 1
LCM(955,108) = 103140
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
