1,37,41,1517
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6480,1517 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6480,1517 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 640,306
2 | 640, 306 |
320, 153 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 320 x 153 = 97920
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/97920
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6480/640,1517/306 is 1/97920
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 640,306 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(640,306) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(640,306) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(640,306) = ( 640 × 306 ) / 2
LCM(640,306) = 195840 / 2
LCM(640,306) = 97920
