:1,2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,30,60,109,218,327,436,545,654,1090,1308,1635,2180,3270,6540
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3161,6540 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3161,6540 is 109.
Lets's calculate LCM of 624,970
2 | 624, 970 |
312, 485 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 312 x 485 = 302640
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 109/302640
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3161/624,6540/970 is 109/302640
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 624,970 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(624,970) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(624,970) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(624,970) = ( 624 × 970 ) / 2
LCM(624,970) = 605280 / 2
LCM(624,970) = 302640
