Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3922,8658 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3922,8658 is 74.
Lets's calculate LCM of 77,895
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 68915
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 74/68915
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3922/77,8658/895 is 74/68915
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 77,895 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(77,895) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(77,895) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(77,895) = ( 77 × 895 ) / 1
LCM(77,895) = 68915 / 1
LCM(77,895) = 68915
