1,5,25,43,125,215,1075,5375
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 269,5375 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 269,5375 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 308,140
2 | 308, 140 |
2 | 154, 70 |
7 | 77, 35 |
11, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 7 x 11 x 5 = 1540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 269/308,5375/140 is 1/1540
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 308,140 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(308,140) = 28
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(308,140) x common factors =28 x 1 = 28
LCM(308,140) = ( 308 × 140 ) / 28
LCM(308,140) = 43120 / 28
LCM(308,140) = 1540
