1,2,4231,8462
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 299,8462 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 299,8462 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 695,685
5 | 695, 685 |
139, 137 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 139 x 137 = 95215
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/95215
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 299/695,8462/685 is 1/95215
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 695,685 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(695,685) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(695,685) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(695,685) = ( 695 × 685 ) / 5
LCM(695,685) = 476075 / 5
LCM(695,685) = 95215
