Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 720,4425 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 720,4425 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 331,760
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 251560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/251560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 720/331,4425/760 is 15/251560
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 331,760 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(331,760) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(331,760) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(331,760) = ( 331 × 760 ) / 1
LCM(331,760) = 251560 / 1
LCM(331,760) = 251560
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
