Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2440,1851 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2440,1851 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 389,185
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 71965
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/71965
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2440/389,1851/185 is 1/71965
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 389,185 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(389,185) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(389,185) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(389,185) = ( 389 × 185 ) / 1
LCM(389,185) = 71965 / 1
LCM(389,185) = 71965
