To find the highest common factor of 65,25, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 65 are 1, 5, 13, 65
The factors of 25 are 1, 5, 25
The HCF of 65,25 is 5.
Lets's calculate GCF of 65,25
5 | 65, 25 |
13, 5 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Lets's calculate LCM of 480,4268
2 | 480, 4268 |
2 | 240, 2134 |
120, 1067 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 120 x 1067 = 512160
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/512160
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 65/480,25/4268 is 5/512160
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 480,4268 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(480,4268) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(480,4268) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(480,4268) = ( 480 × 4268 ) / 4
LCM(480,4268) = 2048640 / 4
LCM(480,4268) = 512160
