Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2145,5065 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2145,5065 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 238,589
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 140182
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/140182
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2145/238,5065/589 is 5/140182
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 238,589 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(238,589) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(238,589) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(238,589) = ( 238 × 589 ) / 1
LCM(238,589) = 140182 / 1
LCM(238,589) = 140182
