Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8978,9925 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8978,9925 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 460,855
5 | 460, 855 |
92, 171 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 92 x 171 = 78660
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/78660
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8978/460,9925/855 is 1/78660
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 460,855 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(460,855) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(460,855) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(460,855) = ( 460 × 855 ) / 5
LCM(460,855) = 393300 / 5
LCM(460,855) = 78660
