Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1945,8505 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1945,8505 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 640,437
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 279680
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/279680
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1945/640,8505/437 is 5/279680
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 640,437 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(640,437) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(640,437) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(640,437) = ( 640 × 437 ) / 1
LCM(640,437) = 279680 / 1
LCM(640,437) = 279680
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
