1,3,5,9,15,45,139,417,695,1251,2085,6255
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 155,6255 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 155,6255 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 361,719
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 259559
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/259559
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 155/361,6255/719 is 5/259559
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 361,719 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(361,719) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(361,719) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(361,719) = ( 361 × 719 ) / 1
LCM(361,719) = 259559 / 1
LCM(361,719) = 259559
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
