5 | 425, 865 |
85, 173 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 425
:1,5,17,25,85,425
Now, list down the factors of 865
:1,5,173,865
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 425,865 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 425,865 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 35,8973
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 314055
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/314055
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 425/35,865/8973 is 5/314055
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 35,8973 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(35,8973) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(35,8973) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(35,8973) = ( 35 × 8973 ) / 1
LCM(35,8973) = 314055 / 1
LCM(35,8973) = 314055
