1,3,2473,7419
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4593,7419 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4593,7419 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 60,290
2 | 60, 290 |
5 | 30, 145 |
6, 29 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 6 x 29 = 1740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4593/60,7419/290 is 3/1740
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 60,290 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(60,290) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(60,290) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(60,290) = ( 60 × 290 ) / 10
LCM(60,290) = 17400 / 10
LCM(60,290) = 1740
