1,2,5,10,941,1882,4705,9410
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3600,9410 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3600,9410 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,159
53 | 53, 159 |
1, 3 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 53 x 1 x 3 = 159
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/159
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3600/53,9410/159 is 10/159
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 53,159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,159) = 53
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,159) x common factors =53 x 1 = 53
LCM(53,159) = ( 53 × 159 ) / 53
LCM(53,159) = 8427 / 53
LCM(53,159) = 159
