So the greatest common factor 780,365 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 970,542
2 | 970, 542 |
485, 271 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 485 x 271 = 262870
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/262870
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 780/970,365/542 is 5/262870
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 970,542 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(970,542) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(970,542) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(970,542) = ( 970 × 542 ) / 2
LCM(970,542) = 525740 / 2
LCM(970,542) = 262870
