Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 320,920 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 320,920 is 40.
Lets's calculate LCM of 77,2518
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 193886
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 40/193886
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 320/77,920/2518 is 40/193886
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 77,2518 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(77,2518) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(77,2518) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(77,2518) = ( 77 × 2518 ) / 1
LCM(77,2518) = 193886 / 1
LCM(77,2518) = 193886
