Lets's calculate GCF of 5080,2141
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 5080
:1,2,4,5,8,10,20,40,127,254,508,635,1016,1270,2540,5080
Now, list down the factors of 2141
:1,2141
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5080,2141 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5080,2141 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 155,172
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 26660
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/26660
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5080/155,2141/172 is 1/26660
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 155,172 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(155,172) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(155,172) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(155,172) = ( 155 × 172 ) / 1
LCM(155,172) = 26660 / 1
LCM(155,172) = 26660
