:1,2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10,12,15,18,20,24,30,36,40,45,60,72,90,120,180,360
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 765,360 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 765,360 is 45.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,143
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6578
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 45/6578
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 765/46,360/143 is 45/6578
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 46,143 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,143) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,143) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(46,143) = ( 46 × 143 ) / 1
LCM(46,143) = 6578 / 1
LCM(46,143) = 6578
