Lets's calculate GCF of 715,1950
| 5 | 715, 1950 |
| 13 | 143, 390 |
| 11, 30 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 x 13 = 65
Now, list down the factors of 715
:1,5,11,13,55,65,143,715
Now, list down the factors of 1950
:1,2,3,5,6,10,13,15,25,26,30,39,50,65,75,78,130,150,195,325,390,650,975,1950
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 715,1950 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 715,1950 is 65.
Lets's calculate LCM of 48,100
| 2 | 48, 100 |
| 2 | 24, 50 |
| 12, 25 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 12 x 25 = 1200
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 65/1200
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 715/48,1950/100 is 65/1200
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 48,100 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(48,100) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(48,100) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(48,100) = ( 48 × 100 ) / 4
LCM(48,100) = 4800 / 4
LCM(48,100) = 1200
