1,5,1433,7165
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3951,7165 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3951,7165 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 84,860
2 | 84, 860 |
2 | 42, 430 |
21, 215 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 21 x 215 = 18060
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/18060
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3951/84,7165/860 is 1/18060
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 84,860 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(84,860) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(84,860) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(84,860) = ( 84 × 860 ) / 4
LCM(84,860) = 72240 / 4
LCM(84,860) = 18060
