:1,13,89,1157
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 113,1157 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 113,1157 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 440,235
5 | 440, 235 |
88, 47 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 88 x 47 = 20680
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/20680
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 113/440,1157/235 is 1/20680
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 440,235 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(440,235) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(440,235) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(440,235) = ( 440 × 235 ) / 5
LCM(440,235) = 103400 / 5
LCM(440,235) = 20680
