Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4074,9436 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4074,9436 is 14.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,860
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 62780
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/62780
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4074/73,9436/860 is 14/62780
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 73,860 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,860) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(73,860) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(73,860) = ( 73 × 860 ) / 1
LCM(73,860) = 62780 / 1
LCM(73,860) = 62780
