So the greatest common factor 753,149 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 315,840
3 | 315, 840 |
5 | 105, 280 |
7 | 21, 56 |
3, 8 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 5 x 7 x 3 x 8 = 2520
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2520
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 753/315,149/840 is 1/2520
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 315,840 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(315,840) = 105
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(315,840) x common factors =105 x 1 = 105
LCM(315,840) = ( 315 × 840 ) / 105
LCM(315,840) = 264600 / 105
LCM(315,840) = 2520
