Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5965,7232 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5965,7232 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 259,1020
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 264180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/264180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5965/259,7232/1020 is 1/264180
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 259,1020 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(259,1020) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(259,1020) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(259,1020) = ( 259 × 1020 ) / 1
LCM(259,1020) = 264180 / 1
LCM(259,1020) = 264180
