Lets's calculate GCF of 360,360
| 2 | 360, 360 |
| 2 | 180, 180 |
| 2 | 90, 90 |
| 3 | 45, 45 |
| 3 | 15, 15 |
| 5 | 5, 5 |
| 1, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 3 x 3 x 5 = 360
Now, list down the factors of 360
:1,2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10,12,15,18,20,24,30,36,40,45,60,72,90,120,180,360
Now, list down the factors of 360
:1,2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10,12,15,18,20,24,30,36,40,45,60,72,90,120,180,360
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 360,360 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 360,360 is 360.
Lets's calculate LCM of 32,9370
| 2 | 32, 9370 |
| 16, 4685 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 16 x 4685 = 149920
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 360/149920
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 360/32,360/9370 is 360/149920
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 32,9370 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(32,9370) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(32,9370) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(32,9370) = ( 32 × 9370 ) / 2
LCM(32,9370) = 299840 / 2
LCM(32,9370) = 149920
