Now, list down the factors of 690
:1,2,3,5,6,10,15,23,30,46,69,115,138,230,345,690
Now, list down the factors of 960
:1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10,12,15,16,20,24,30,32,40,48,60,64,80,96,120,160,192,240,320,480,960
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 690,960 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 690,960 is 30.
Lets's calculate LCM of 72,215
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 15480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 30/15480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 690/72,960/215 is 30/15480
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 72,215 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,215) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(72,215) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(72,215) = ( 72 × 215 ) / 1
LCM(72,215) = 15480 / 1
LCM(72,215) = 15480
