Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 795,1665 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 795,1665 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 234,551
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 128934
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/128934
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 795/234,1665/551 is 15/128934
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 234,551 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(234,551) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(234,551) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(234,551) = ( 234 × 551 ) / 1
LCM(234,551) = 128934 / 1
LCM(234,551) = 128934
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
