Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 755,560 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 755,560 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 395,225
5 | 395, 225 |
79, 45 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 79 x 45 = 17775
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/17775
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 755/395,560/225 is 5/17775
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 395,225 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(395,225) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(395,225) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(395,225) = ( 395 × 225 ) / 5
LCM(395,225) = 88875 / 5
LCM(395,225) = 17775
