Now, list down the factors of 3040
:1,2,4,5,8,10,16,19,20,32,38,40,76,80,95,152,160,190,304,380,608,760,1520,3040
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2080,3040 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2080,3040 is 160.
Lets's calculate LCM of 231,1970
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 455070
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 160/455070
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2080/231,3040/1970 is 160/455070
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 231,1970 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(231,1970) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(231,1970) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(231,1970) = ( 231 × 1970 ) / 1
LCM(231,1970) = 455070 / 1
LCM(231,1970) = 455070
