Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1346,4266 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1346,4266 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,962
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 70226
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/70226
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1346/73,4266/962 is 2/70226
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 73,962 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,962) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(73,962) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(73,962) = ( 73 × 962 ) / 1
LCM(73,962) = 70226 / 1
LCM(73,962) = 70226
