:1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,29,40,58,80,116,145,232,290,464,580,1160,2320
Now, list down the factors of 7540
:1,2,4,5,10,13,20,26,29,52,58,65,116,130,145,260,290,377,580,754,1508,1885,3770,7540
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2320,7540 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2320,7540 is 580.
Lets's calculate LCM of 961,104
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 99944
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 580/99944
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2320/961,7540/104 is 580/99944
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 961,104 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(961,104) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(961,104) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(961,104) = ( 961 × 104 ) / 1
LCM(961,104) = 99944 / 1
LCM(961,104) = 99944
