Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6140,5440 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6140,5440 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 513,1689
3 | 513, 1689 |
171, 563 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 171 x 563 = 288819
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/288819
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6140/513,5440/1689 is 20/288819
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 513,1689 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(513,1689) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(513,1689) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(513,1689) = ( 513 × 1689 ) / 3
LCM(513,1689) = 866457 / 3
LCM(513,1689) = 288819
