Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 636,680 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 636,680 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 10,920
2 | 10, 920 |
5 | 5, 460 |
1, 92 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 5 x 1 x 92 = 920
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/920
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 636/10,680/920 is 4/920
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 10,920 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(10,920) = 10
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(10,920) x common factors =10 x 1 = 10
LCM(10,920) = ( 10 × 920 ) / 10
LCM(10,920) = 9200 / 10
LCM(10,920) = 920
