Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1200,9660 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1200,9660 is 60.
Lets's calculate LCM of 471,215
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 101265
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 60/101265
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1200/471,9660/215 is 60/101265
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 471,215 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(471,215) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(471,215) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(471,215) = ( 471 × 215 ) / 1
LCM(471,215) = 101265 / 1
LCM(471,215) = 101265
