1,2,4,1051,2102,4204
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1086,4204 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1086,4204 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 365,723
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 263895
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/263895
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1086/365,4204/723 is 2/263895
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 365,723 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(365,723) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(365,723) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(365,723) = ( 365 × 723 ) / 1
LCM(365,723) = 263895 / 1
LCM(365,723) = 263895
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
