We found the factors 30,4080 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 30,4080 is 30.
Lets's calculate LCM of 720,3603
3 | 720, 3603 |
240, 1201 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 240 x 1201 = 864720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 30/864720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 30/720,4080/3603 is 30/864720
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 720,3603 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(720,3603) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(720,3603) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(720,3603) = ( 720 × 3603 ) / 3
LCM(720,3603) = 2594160 / 3
LCM(720,3603) = 864720
