Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5149,5225 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5149,5225 is 19.
Lets's calculate LCM of 65,253
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 16445
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/16445
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5149/65,5225/253 is 19/16445
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 65,253 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(65,253) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(65,253) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(65,253) = ( 65 × 253 ) / 1
LCM(65,253) = 16445 / 1
LCM(65,253) = 16445
