Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3920,5814 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3920,5814 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,568
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21016
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/21016
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3920/37,5814/568 is 2/21016
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 37,568 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,568) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,568) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,568) = ( 37 × 568 ) / 1
LCM(37,568) = 21016 / 1
LCM(37,568) = 21016
