Lets's calculate GCF of 80,20
2 | 80, 20 |
2 | 40, 10 |
5 | 20, 5 |
4, 1 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 = 20
Now, list down the factors of 80
:1,2,4,5,8,10,16,20,40,80
Now, list down the factors of 20
:1,2,4,5,10,20
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 80,20 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 80,20 is 20.
Lets's calculate LCM of 117,8627
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1009359
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 20/1009359
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 80/117,20/8627 is 20/1009359
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 117,8627 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(117,8627) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(117,8627) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(117,8627) = ( 117 × 8627 ) / 1
LCM(117,8627) = 1009359 / 1
LCM(117,8627) = 1009359
