Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 263,7497 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 263,7497 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 64,840
2 | 64, 840 |
2 | 32, 420 |
2 | 16, 210 |
8, 105 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 8 x 105 = 6720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 263/64,7497/840 is 1/6720
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 64,840 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(64,840) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(64,840) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(64,840) = ( 64 × 840 ) / 8
LCM(64,840) = 53760 / 8
LCM(64,840) = 6720
