Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 480,243 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 480,243 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 635,630
5 | 635, 630 |
127, 126 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 127 x 126 = 80010
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/80010
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 480/635,243/630 is 3/80010
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 635,630 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(635,630) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(635,630) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(635,630) = ( 635 × 630 ) / 5
LCM(635,630) = 400050 / 5
LCM(635,630) = 80010
