Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 765,965 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 765,965 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 79,2578
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 203662
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/203662
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 765/79,965/2578 is 5/203662
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 79,2578 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(79,2578) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(79,2578) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(79,2578) = ( 79 × 2578 ) / 1
LCM(79,2578) = 203662 / 1
LCM(79,2578) = 203662
