5 | 3155, 2120 |
631, 424 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 3155
:1,5,631,3155
Now, list down the factors of 2120
:1,2,4,5,8,10,20,40,53,106,212,265,424,530,1060,2120
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3155,2120 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3155,2120 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 375,484
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 181500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/181500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3155/375,2120/484 is 5/181500
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 375,484 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(375,484) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(375,484) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(375,484) = ( 375 × 484 ) / 1
LCM(375,484) = 181500 / 1
LCM(375,484) = 181500
