Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4540,9040 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4540,9040 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 565,608
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 343520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/343520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4540/565,9040/608 is 20/343520
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 565,608 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(565,608) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(565,608) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(565,608) = ( 565 × 608 ) / 1
LCM(565,608) = 343520 / 1
LCM(565,608) = 343520
