Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9999,8772 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9999,8772 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 780,225
3 | 780, 225 |
5 | 260, 75 |
52, 15 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 52 x 15 = 11700
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/11700
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9999/780,8772/225 is 3/11700
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 780,225 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(780,225) = 15
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(780,225) x common factors =15 x 1 = 15
LCM(780,225) = ( 780 × 225 ) / 15
LCM(780,225) = 175500 / 15
LCM(780,225) = 11700
