Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2507,1035 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2507,1035 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 244,840
2 | 244, 840 |
2 | 122, 420 |
61, 210 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 61 x 210 = 51240
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/51240
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2507/244,1035/840 is 23/51240
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 244,840 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(244,840) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(244,840) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(244,840) = ( 244 × 840 ) / 4
LCM(244,840) = 204960 / 4
LCM(244,840) = 51240
