Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4060,3458 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4060,3458 is 14.
Lets's calculate LCM of 284,2961
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 840924
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/840924
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4060/284,3458/2961 is 14/840924
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 284,2961 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(284,2961) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(284,2961) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(284,2961) = ( 284 × 2961 ) / 1
LCM(284,2961) = 840924 / 1
LCM(284,2961) = 840924
