We found the factors 4497,5328 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4497,5328 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 20,355
5 | 20, 355 |
4, 71 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 4 x 71 = 1420
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1420
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4497/20,5328/355 is 3/1420
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 20,355 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,355) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(20,355) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(20,355) = ( 20 × 355 ) / 5
LCM(20,355) = 7100 / 5
LCM(20,355) = 1420
