:1,7,163,1141
Now, list down the factors of 1596
:1,2,3,4,6,7,12,14,19,21,28,38,42,57,76,84,114,133,228,266,399,532,798,1596
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1141,1596 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1141,1596 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 315,3700
5 | 315, 3700 |
63, 740 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 63 x 740 = 233100
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/233100
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1141/315,1596/3700 is 7/233100
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 315,3700 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(315,3700) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(315,3700) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(315,3700) = ( 315 × 3700 ) / 5
LCM(315,3700) = 1165500 / 5
LCM(315,3700) = 233100
