Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3855,1936 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3855,1936 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 45,965
5 | 45, 965 |
9, 193 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 9 x 193 = 8685
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8685
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3855/45,1936/965 is 1/8685
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 45,965 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(45,965) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(45,965) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(45,965) = ( 45 × 965 ) / 5
LCM(45,965) = 43425 / 5
LCM(45,965) = 8685
