1,3,5,15,157,471,785,2355
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4620,2355 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4620,2355 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 19,542
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10298
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/10298
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4620/19,2355/542 is 15/10298
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 19,542 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(19,542) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(19,542) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(19,542) = ( 19 × 542 ) / 1
LCM(19,542) = 10298 / 1
LCM(19,542) = 10298
