Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 548,4286 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 548,4286 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 803,715
11 | 803, 715 |
73, 65 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 73 x 65 = 52195
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/52195
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 548/803,4286/715 is 2/52195
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 803,715 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(803,715) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(803,715) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(803,715) = ( 803 × 715 ) / 11
LCM(803,715) = 574145 / 11
LCM(803,715) = 52195
