We found the factors 8485,7420 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8485,7420 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 842,2310
2 | 842, 2310 |
421, 1155 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 421 x 1155 = 972510
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/972510
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8485/842,7420/2310 is 5/972510
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 842,2310 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(842,2310) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(842,2310) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(842,2310) = ( 842 × 2310 ) / 2
LCM(842,2310) = 1945020 / 2
LCM(842,2310) = 972510
