1,2,11,22,83,166,913,1826
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 653,1826 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 653,1826 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 960,540
2 | 960, 540 |
2 | 480, 270 |
3 | 240, 135 |
5 | 80, 45 |
16, 9 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 5 x 16 x 9 = 8640
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/8640
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 653/960,1826/540 is 1/8640
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 960,540 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(960,540) = 60
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(960,540) x common factors =60 x 1 = 60
LCM(960,540) = ( 960 × 540 ) / 60
LCM(960,540) = 518400 / 60
LCM(960,540) = 8640
