:1,2,4,5,10,11,13,20,22,26,44,52,55,65,110,130,143,220,260,286,572,715,1430,2860
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1480,2860 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1480,2860 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 415,8375
5 | 415, 8375 |
83, 1675 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 83 x 1675 = 695125
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/695125
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1480/415,2860/8375 is 20/695125
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 415,8375 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(415,8375) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(415,8375) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(415,8375) = ( 415 × 8375 ) / 5
LCM(415,8375) = 3475625 / 5
LCM(415,8375) = 695125
