Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 320,4870 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 320,4870 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 135,521
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 70335
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/70335
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 320/135,4870/521 is 10/70335
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 135,521 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(135,521) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(135,521) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(135,521) = ( 135 × 521 ) / 1
LCM(135,521) = 70335 / 1
LCM(135,521) = 70335
