Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2732,2016 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2732,2016 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 421,6786
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2856906
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2856906
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2732/421,2016/6786 is 4/2856906
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 421,6786 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(421,6786) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(421,6786) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(421,6786) = ( 421 × 6786 ) / 1
LCM(421,6786) = 2856906 / 1
LCM(421,6786) = 2856906
