:1,5,11,25,55,275
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 675,275 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 675,275 is 25.
Lets's calculate LCM of 42,351
3 | 42, 351 |
14, 117 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 14 x 117 = 4914
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 25/4914
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 675/42,275/351 is 25/4914
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 42,351 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(42,351) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(42,351) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(42,351) = ( 42 × 351 ) / 3
LCM(42,351) = 14742 / 3
LCM(42,351) = 4914
