Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1481,1687 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1481,1687 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 455,2850
5 | 455, 2850 |
91, 570 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 91 x 570 = 259350
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/259350
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1481/455,1687/2850 is 1/259350
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 455,2850 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(455,2850) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(455,2850) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(455,2850) = ( 455 × 2850 ) / 5
LCM(455,2850) = 1296750 / 5
LCM(455,2850) = 259350
