1,5,1523,7615
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1590,7615 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1590,7615 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 959,343
7 | 959, 343 |
137, 49 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 137 x 49 = 46991
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/46991
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1590/959,7615/343 is 5/46991
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 959,343 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(959,343) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(959,343) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(959,343) = ( 959 × 343 ) / 7
LCM(959,343) = 328937 / 7
LCM(959,343) = 46991
