:1,2,3,4,6,12,23,31,46,62,69,92,93,124,138,186,276,372,713,1426,2139,2852,4278,8556
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7760,8556 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7760,8556 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 454,240
2 | 454, 240 |
227, 120 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 227 x 120 = 54480
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/54480
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7760/454,8556/240 is 4/54480
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 454,240 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(454,240) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(454,240) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(454,240) = ( 454 × 240 ) / 2
LCM(454,240) = 108960 / 2
LCM(454,240) = 54480
