Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5955,1810 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5955,1810 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 115,1559
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 179285
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/179285
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5955/115,1810/1559 is 5/179285
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 115,1559 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(115,1559) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(115,1559) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(115,1559) = ( 115 × 1559 ) / 1
LCM(115,1559) = 179285 / 1
LCM(115,1559) = 179285
