Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 820,8980 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 820,8980 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 485,4074
97 | 485, 4074 |
5, 42 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 97 x 5 x 42 = 20370
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/20370
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 820/485,8980/4074 is 20/20370
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 485,4074 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(485,4074) = 97
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(485,4074) x common factors =97 x 1 = 97
LCM(485,4074) = ( 485 × 4074 ) / 97
LCM(485,4074) = 1975890 / 97
LCM(485,4074) = 20370
