Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 475,9425 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 475,9425 is 25.
Lets's calculate LCM of 740,584
2 | 740, 584 |
2 | 370, 292 |
185, 146 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 185 x 146 = 108040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 25/108040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 475/740,9425/584 is 25/108040
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 740,584 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(740,584) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(740,584) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(740,584) = ( 740 × 584 ) / 4
LCM(740,584) = 432160 / 4
LCM(740,584) = 108040
