Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 360,415 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 360,415 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 40,9497
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 379880
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/379880
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 360/40,415/9497 is 5/379880
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 40,9497 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,9497) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(40,9497) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(40,9497) = ( 40 × 9497 ) / 1
LCM(40,9497) = 379880 / 1
LCM(40,9497) = 379880
