So the greatest common factor 2115,6550 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 180,2136
2 | 180, 2136 |
2 | 90, 1068 |
3 | 45, 534 |
15, 178 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 3 x 15 x 178 = 32040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/32040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2115/180,6550/2136 is 5/32040
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 180,2136 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(180,2136) = 12
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(180,2136) x common factors =12 x 1 = 12
LCM(180,2136) = ( 180 × 2136 ) / 12
LCM(180,2136) = 384480 / 12
LCM(180,2136) = 32040
