Now, list down the factors of 515
:1,5,103,515
Now, list down the factors of 657
:1,3,9,73,219,657
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 515,657 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 515,657 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 60,521
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 31260
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/31260
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 515/60,657/521 is 1/31260
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 60,521 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(60,521) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(60,521) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(60,521) = ( 60 × 521 ) / 1
LCM(60,521) = 31260 / 1
LCM(60,521) = 31260
