∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 185
:1,5,37,185
Now, list down the factors of 985
:1,5,197,985
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 185,985 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 185,985 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 605,592
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 358160
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/358160
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 185/605,985/592 is 5/358160
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 605,592 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(605,592) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(605,592) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(605,592) = ( 605 × 592 ) / 1
LCM(605,592) = 358160 / 1
LCM(605,592) = 358160
