:1,2,4,5,8,10,20,40,41,82,164,205,328,410,820,1640
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7015,1640 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7015,1640 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 539,540
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 291060
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/291060
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7015/539,1640/540 is 5/291060
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 539,540 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(539,540) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(539,540) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(539,540) = ( 539 × 540 ) / 1
LCM(539,540) = 291060 / 1
LCM(539,540) = 291060
