Now, list down the factors of 2555
:1,5,7,35,73,365,511,2555
Now, list down the factors of 2550
:1,2,3,5,6,10,15,17,25,30,34,50,51,75,85,102,150,170,255,425,510,850,1275,2550
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2555,2550 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2555,2550 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 70,637
| 7 | 70, 637 |
| 10, 91 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 10 x 91 = 6370
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/6370
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2555/70,2550/637 is 5/6370
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 70,637 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(70,637) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(70,637) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(70,637) = ( 70 × 637 ) / 7
LCM(70,637) = 44590 / 7
LCM(70,637) = 6370
