Now, list down the factors of 840
:1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,10,12,14,15,20,21,24,28,30,35,40,42,56,60,70,84,105,120,140,168,210,280,420,840
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 560,840 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 560,840 is 280.
Lets's calculate LCM of 97,3577
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 346969
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 280/346969
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 560/97,840/3577 is 280/346969
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 97,3577 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(97,3577) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(97,3577) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(97,3577) = ( 97 × 3577 ) / 1
LCM(97,3577) = 346969 / 1
LCM(97,3577) = 346969
