:1,5,7,35,83,415,581,2905
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2440,2905 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2440,2905 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 151,717
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 108267
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/108267
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2440/151,2905/717 is 5/108267
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 151,717 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(151,717) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(151,717) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(151,717) = ( 151 × 717 ) / 1
LCM(151,717) = 108267 / 1
LCM(151,717) = 108267
