1,3,11,33,61,183,671,2013
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7233,2013 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7233,2013 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 635,280
5 | 635, 280 |
127, 56 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 127 x 56 = 35560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/35560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7233/635,2013/280 is 3/35560
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 635,280 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(635,280) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(635,280) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(635,280) = ( 635 × 280 ) / 5
LCM(635,280) = 177800 / 5
LCM(635,280) = 35560
