1,3,5,15,257,771,1285,3855
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8612,3855 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8612,3855 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,220
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19140
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19140
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8612/87,3855/220 is 1/19140
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 87,220 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,220) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(87,220) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(87,220) = ( 87 × 220 ) / 1
LCM(87,220) = 19140 / 1
LCM(87,220) = 19140
