Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 724,5741 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 724,5741 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 485,145
5 | 485, 145 |
97, 29 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 97 x 29 = 14065
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/14065
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 724/485,5741/145 is 1/14065
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 485,145 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(485,145) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(485,145) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(485,145) = ( 485 × 145 ) / 5
LCM(485,145) = 70325 / 5
LCM(485,145) = 14065
