Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1605,2715 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1605,2715 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 857,595
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 509915
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/509915
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1605/857,2715/595 is 15/509915
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 857,595 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(857,595) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(857,595) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(857,595) = ( 857 × 595 ) / 1
LCM(857,595) = 509915 / 1
LCM(857,595) = 509915
