The factors of 43 are 1, 43
The HCF of 37,43 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 37,43
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Lets's calculate LCM of 875,2445
5 | 875, 2445 |
175, 489 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 175 x 489 = 427875
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/427875
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 37/875,43/2445 is 1/427875
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 875,2445 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(875,2445) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(875,2445) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(875,2445) = ( 875 × 2445 ) / 5
LCM(875,2445) = 2139375 / 5
LCM(875,2445) = 427875
