We found the factors 155,7440 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 155,7440 is 155.
Lets's calculate LCM of 964,513
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 494532
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 155/494532
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 155/964,7440/513 is 155/494532
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 964,513 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(964,513) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(964,513) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(964,513) = ( 964 × 513 ) / 1
LCM(964,513) = 494532 / 1
LCM(964,513) = 494532
