Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 609,8694 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 609,8694 is 21.
Lets's calculate LCM of 530,540
2 | 530, 540 |
5 | 265, 270 |
53, 54 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 53 x 54 = 28620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 21/28620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 609/530,8694/540 is 21/28620
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 530,540 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(530,540) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(530,540) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(530,540) = ( 530 × 540 ) / 10
LCM(530,540) = 286200 / 10
LCM(530,540) = 28620
