Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3540,9009 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3540,9009 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 965,3052
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2945180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/2945180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3540/965,9009/3052 is 3/2945180
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 965,3052 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(965,3052) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(965,3052) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(965,3052) = ( 965 × 3052 ) / 1
LCM(965,3052) = 2945180 / 1
LCM(965,3052) = 2945180
