Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3702,5256 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3702,5256 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 903,823
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 743169
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/743169
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3702/903,5256/823 is 6/743169
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 903,823 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(903,823) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(903,823) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(903,823) = ( 903 × 823 ) / 1
LCM(903,823) = 743169 / 1
LCM(903,823) = 743169
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
