:1,971
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 507,971 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 507,971 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 180,875
5 | 180, 875 |
36, 175 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 36 x 175 = 31500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/31500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 507/180,971/875 is 1/31500
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 180,875 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(180,875) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(180,875) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(180,875) = ( 180 × 875 ) / 5
LCM(180,875) = 157500 / 5
LCM(180,875) = 31500
