1,3,9,653,1959,5877
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5200,5877 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5200,5877 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 915,1152
3 | 915, 1152 |
305, 384 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 305 x 384 = 351360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/351360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5200/915,5877/1152 is 1/351360
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 915,1152 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(915,1152) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(915,1152) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(915,1152) = ( 915 × 1152 ) / 3
LCM(915,1152) = 1054080 / 3
LCM(915,1152) = 351360
