1,5,19,83,95,415,1577,7885
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7290,7885 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7290,7885 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,422
2 | 14, 422 |
7, 211 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 7 x 211 = 2954
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/2954
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7290/14,7885/422 is 5/2954
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 14,422 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,422) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(14,422) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(14,422) = ( 14 × 422 ) / 2
LCM(14,422) = 5908 / 2
LCM(14,422) = 2954
