Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5006,7840 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5006,7840 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 301,150
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 45150
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/45150
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5006/301,7840/150 is 2/45150
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 301,150 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(301,150) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(301,150) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(301,150) = ( 301 × 150 ) / 1
LCM(301,150) = 45150 / 1
LCM(301,150) = 45150
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
