Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2121,2577 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2121,2577 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 510,512
2 | 510, 512 |
255, 256 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 255 x 256 = 130560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/130560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2121/510,2577/512 is 3/130560
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 510,512 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(510,512) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(510,512) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(510,512) = ( 510 × 512 ) / 2
LCM(510,512) = 261120 / 2
LCM(510,512) = 130560
