1,2,3,4,6,12,353,706,1059,1412,2118,4236
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 141,4236 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 141,4236 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 695,735
5 | 695, 735 |
139, 147 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 139 x 147 = 102165
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/102165
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 141/695,4236/735 is 3/102165
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 695,735 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(695,735) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(695,735) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(695,735) = ( 695 × 735 ) / 5
LCM(695,735) = 510825 / 5
LCM(695,735) = 102165
