Now, list down the factors of 1597
:1,1597
Now, list down the factors of 2100
:1,2,3,4,5,6,7,10,12,14,15,20,21,25,28,30,35,42,50,60,70,75,84,100,105,140,150,175,210,300,350,420,525,700,1050,2100
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1597,2100 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1597,2100 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 700,8005
5 | 700, 8005 |
140, 1601 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 140 x 1601 = 1120700
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1120700
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1597/700,2100/8005 is 1/1120700
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 700,8005 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(700,8005) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(700,8005) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(700,8005) = ( 700 × 8005 ) / 5
LCM(700,8005) = 5603500 / 5
LCM(700,8005) = 1120700
