Now, list down the factors of 759
:1,3,11,23,33,69,253,759
Now, list down the factors of 960
:1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10,12,15,16,20,24,30,32,40,48,60,64,80,96,120,160,192,240,320,480,960
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 759,960 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 759,960 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 148,482
2 | 148, 482 |
74, 241 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 74 x 241 = 35668
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/35668
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 759/148,960/482 is 3/35668
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 148,482 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(148,482) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(148,482) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(148,482) = ( 148 × 482 ) / 2
LCM(148,482) = 71336 / 2
LCM(148,482) = 35668
