Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 384,780 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 384,780 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 53,5935
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 314555
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/314555
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 384/53,780/5935 is 12/314555
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 53,5935 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(53,5935) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(53,5935) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(53,5935) = ( 53 × 5935 ) / 1
LCM(53,5935) = 314555 / 1
LCM(53,5935) = 314555
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
