1,2,4,227,454,908
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 360,908 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 360,908 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 9724,3261
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 31709964
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/31709964
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 360/9724,908/3261 is 4/31709964
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 9724,3261 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(9724,3261) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(9724,3261) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(9724,3261) = ( 9724 × 3261 ) / 1
LCM(9724,3261) = 31709964 / 1
LCM(9724,3261) = 31709964
