Lets's calculate GCF of 5161,1100
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 5161
:1,13,397,5161
Now, list down the factors of 1100
:1,2,4,5,10,11,20,22,25,44,50,55,100,110,220,275,550,1100
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5161,1100 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5161,1100 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 372,715
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 265980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/265980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5161/372,1100/715 is 1/265980
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 372,715 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(372,715) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(372,715) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(372,715) = ( 372 × 715 ) / 1
LCM(372,715) = 265980 / 1
LCM(372,715) = 265980
