Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1917,7815 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1917,7815 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,290
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6670
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/6670
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1917/23,7815/290 is 3/6670
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 23,290 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,290) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,290) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,290) = ( 23 × 290 ) / 1
LCM(23,290) = 6670 / 1
LCM(23,290) = 6670
