Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3508,3141 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3508,3141 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 515,405
5 | 515, 405 |
103, 81 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 103 x 81 = 41715
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/41715
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3508/515,3141/405 is 1/41715
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 515,405 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(515,405) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(515,405) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(515,405) = ( 515 × 405 ) / 5
LCM(515,405) = 208575 / 5
LCM(515,405) = 41715
