Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3812,4100 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3812,4100 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 721,765
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 551565
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/551565
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3812/721,4100/765 is 4/551565
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 721,765 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(721,765) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(721,765) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(721,765) = ( 721 × 765 ) / 1
LCM(721,765) = 551565 / 1
LCM(721,765) = 551565
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
