We found the factors 7324,4446 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7324,4446 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 145,1865
5 | 145, 1865 |
29, 373 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 29 x 373 = 54085
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/54085
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7324/145,4446/1865 is 2/54085
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 145,1865 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(145,1865) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(145,1865) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(145,1865) = ( 145 × 1865 ) / 5
LCM(145,1865) = 270425 / 5
LCM(145,1865) = 54085
