Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 225,9990 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 225,9990 is 45.
Lets's calculate LCM of 614,159
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 97626
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 45/97626
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 225/614,9990/159 is 45/97626
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 614,159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(614,159) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(614,159) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(614,159) = ( 614 × 159 ) / 1
LCM(614,159) = 97626 / 1
LCM(614,159) = 97626
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
