:1,3,5,15,379,1137,1895,5685
Now, list down the factors of 2600
:1,2,4,5,8,10,13,20,25,26,40,50,52,65,100,104,130,200,260,325,520,650,1300,2600
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5685,2600 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5685,2600 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 720,3037
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2186640
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/2186640
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5685/720,2600/3037 is 5/2186640
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 720,3037 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(720,3037) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(720,3037) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(720,3037) = ( 720 × 3037 ) / 1
LCM(720,3037) = 2186640 / 1
LCM(720,3037) = 2186640
