Now, list down the factors of 371
:1,7,53,371
Now, list down the factors of 4100
:1,2,4,5,10,20,25,41,50,82,100,164,205,410,820,1025,2050,4100
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 371,4100 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 371,4100 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 735,729
3 | 735, 729 |
245, 243 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 245 x 243 = 178605
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/178605
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 371/735,4100/729 is 1/178605
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 735,729 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(735,729) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(735,729) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(735,729) = ( 735 × 729 ) / 3
LCM(735,729) = 535815 / 3
LCM(735,729) = 178605
