Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3870,2592 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3870,2592 is 18.
Lets's calculate LCM of 29,945
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 27405
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/27405
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3870/29,2592/945 is 18/27405
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 29,945 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(29,945) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(29,945) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(29,945) = ( 29 × 945 ) / 1
LCM(29,945) = 27405 / 1
LCM(29,945) = 27405
