Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7480,1580 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7480,1580 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 751,242
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 181742
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/181742
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7480/751,1580/242 is 20/181742
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 751,242 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(751,242) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(751,242) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(751,242) = ( 751 × 242 ) / 1
LCM(751,242) = 181742 / 1
LCM(751,242) = 181742
