:1,3,5,9,15,41,45,123,205,369,615,1845
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 750,1845 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 750,1845 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 977,120
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 117240
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/117240
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 750/977,1845/120 is 15/117240
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 977,120 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(977,120) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(977,120) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(977,120) = ( 977 × 120 ) / 1
LCM(977,120) = 117240 / 1
LCM(977,120) = 117240
