:1,2,3,4,5,6,9,10,12,15,18,20,25,27,30,36,45,50,54,60,75,90,100,108,135,150,180,225,270,300,450,540,675,900,1350,2700
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5020,2700 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5020,2700 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 142,2955
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 419610
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/419610
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5020/142,2700/2955 is 20/419610
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 142,2955 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(142,2955) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(142,2955) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(142,2955) = ( 142 × 2955 ) / 1
LCM(142,2955) = 419610 / 1
LCM(142,2955) = 419610
