Lets's calculate GCF of 33,75
3 | 33, 75 |
11, 25 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 33
:1,3,11,33
Now, list down the factors of 75
:1,3,5,15,25,75
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 33,75 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 33,75 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 215,8585
5 | 215, 8585 |
43, 1717 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 43 x 1717 = 369155
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/369155
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 33/215,75/8585 is 3/369155
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 215,8585 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(215,8585) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(215,8585) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(215,8585) = ( 215 × 8585 ) / 5
LCM(215,8585) = 1845775 / 5
LCM(215,8585) = 369155
