Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7840,5872 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7840,5872 is 16.
Lets's calculate LCM of 132,965
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 127380
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 16/127380
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7840/132,5872/965 is 16/127380
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 132,965 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(132,965) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(132,965) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(132,965) = ( 132 × 965 ) / 1
LCM(132,965) = 127380 / 1
LCM(132,965) = 127380
