Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 321,7200 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 321,7200 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 372,3695
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1374540
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1374540
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 321/372,7200/3695 is 3/1374540
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 372,3695 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(372,3695) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(372,3695) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(372,3695) = ( 372 × 3695 ) / 1
LCM(372,3695) = 1374540 / 1
LCM(372,3695) = 1374540
