Lets's calculate GCF of 5515,1195
5 | 5515, 1195 |
1103, 239 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 5515
:1,5,1103,5515
Now, list down the factors of 1195
:1,5,239,1195
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5515,1195 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5515,1195 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 213,746
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 158898
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/158898
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5515/213,1195/746 is 5/158898
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 213,746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(213,746) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(213,746) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(213,746) = ( 213 × 746 ) / 1
LCM(213,746) = 158898 / 1
LCM(213,746) = 158898
