Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 29,5800 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 29,5800 is 29.
Lets's calculate LCM of 360,8135
5 | 360, 8135 |
72, 1627 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 72 x 1627 = 585720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 29/585720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 29/360,5800/8135 is 29/585720
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 360,8135 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(360,8135) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(360,8135) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(360,8135) = ( 360 × 8135 ) / 5
LCM(360,8135) = 2928600 / 5
LCM(360,8135) = 585720
