Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 895,493 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 895,493 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 730,915
5 | 730, 915 |
146, 183 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 5 x 146 x 183 = 133590
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/133590
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 895/730,493/915 is 1/133590
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 730,915 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(730,915) = 5
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(730,915) x common factors =5 x 1 = 5
LCM(730,915) = ( 730 × 915 ) / 5
LCM(730,915) = 667950 / 5
LCM(730,915) = 133590
