Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3261,5995 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3261,5995 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 897,1590
3 | 897, 1590 |
299, 530 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 299 x 530 = 475410
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/475410
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3261/897,5995/1590 is 1/475410
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 897,1590 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(897,1590) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(897,1590) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(897,1590) = ( 897 × 1590 ) / 3
LCM(897,1590) = 1426230 / 3
LCM(897,1590) = 475410
