Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 655,1142 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 655,1142 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 115,132
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 15180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/15180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 655/115,1142/132 is 1/15180
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 115,132 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(115,132) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(115,132) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(115,132) = ( 115 × 132 ) / 1
LCM(115,132) = 15180 / 1
LCM(115,132) = 15180
