Lets's calculate GCF of 715,915
5 | 715, 915 |
143, 183 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 = 5
Now, list down the factors of 715
:1,5,11,13,55,65,143,715
Now, list down the factors of 915
:1,3,5,15,61,183,305,915
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 715,915 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 715,915 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 72,3833
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 275976
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/275976
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 715/72,915/3833 is 5/275976
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 72,3833 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,3833) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(72,3833) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(72,3833) = ( 72 × 3833 ) / 1
LCM(72,3833) = 275976 / 1
LCM(72,3833) = 275976
