∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 395
:1,5,79,395
Now, list down the factors of 785
:1,5,157,785
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 395,785 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 395,785 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 70,1048
2 | 70, 1048 |
35, 524 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 35 x 524 = 36680
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/36680
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 395/70,785/1048 is 5/36680
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 70,1048 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(70,1048) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(70,1048) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(70,1048) = ( 70 × 1048 ) / 2
LCM(70,1048) = 73360 / 2
LCM(70,1048) = 36680
