:1,2,3,4,5,6,10,12,15,20,25,30,50,60,75,100,125,150,250,300,375,500,750,1500
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5487,1500 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5487,1500 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 32,829
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 26528
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/26528
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5487/32,1500/829 is 3/26528
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 32,829 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(32,829) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(32,829) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(32,829) = ( 32 × 829 ) / 1
LCM(32,829) = 26528 / 1
LCM(32,829) = 26528
