Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9520,3568 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9520,3568 is 16.
Lets's calculate LCM of 796,1505
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1197980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/1197980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9520/796,3568/1505 is 16/1197980
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 796,1505 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(796,1505) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(796,1505) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(796,1505) = ( 796 × 1505 ) / 1
LCM(796,1505) = 1197980 / 1
LCM(796,1505) = 1197980
