1,2,3,4,5,6,9,10,12,15,18,20,30,36,41,45,60,82,90,123,164,180,205,246,369,410,492,615,738,820,1230,1476,1845,2460,3690,7380
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7243,7380 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7243,7380 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 116,260
2 | 116, 260 |
2 | 58, 130 |
29, 65 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 29 x 65 = 7540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7243/116,7380/260 is 1/7540
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 116,260 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(116,260) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(116,260) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(116,260) = ( 116 × 260 ) / 4
LCM(116,260) = 30160 / 4
LCM(116,260) = 7540
