We found the factors 383,531 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 383,531 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 560,532
2 | 560, 532 |
2 | 280, 266 |
7 | 140, 133 |
20, 19 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 7 x 20 x 19 = 10640
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10640
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 383/560,531/532 is 1/10640
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 560,532 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(560,532) = 28
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(560,532) x common factors =28 x 1 = 28
LCM(560,532) = ( 560 × 532 ) / 28
LCM(560,532) = 297920 / 28
LCM(560,532) = 10640
