Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 896,4372 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 896,4372 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 680,155
5 | 680, 155 |
136, 31 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 136 x 31 = 21080
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/21080
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 896/680,4372/155 is 4/21080
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 680,155 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(680,155) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(680,155) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(680,155) = ( 680 × 155 ) / 5
LCM(680,155) = 105400 / 5
LCM(680,155) = 21080
