1,5,587,2935
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1620,2935 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1620,2935 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 795,874
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 694830
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/694830
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1620/795,2935/874 is 5/694830
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 795,874 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(795,874) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(795,874) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(795,874) = ( 795 × 874 ) / 1
LCM(795,874) = 694830 / 1
LCM(795,874) = 694830
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
