Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5485,5997 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5485,5997 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 470,515
5 | 470, 515 |
94, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 94 x 103 = 48410
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/48410
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5485/470,5997/515 is 1/48410
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 470,515 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(470,515) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(470,515) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(470,515) = ( 470 × 515 ) / 5
LCM(470,515) = 242050 / 5
LCM(470,515) = 48410
