15, 8 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 x 2 = 64
Now, list down the factors of 960
:1,2,3,4,5,6,8,10,12,15,16,20,24,30,32,40,48,60,64,80,96,120,160,192,240,320,480,960
Now, list down the factors of 512
:1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128,256,512
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 960,512 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 960,512 is 64.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,183
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2562
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 64/2562
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 960/14,512/183 is 64/2562
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 14,183 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,183) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(14,183) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(14,183) = ( 14 × 183 ) / 1
LCM(14,183) = 2562 / 1
LCM(14,183) = 2562
