Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4211,3800 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4211,3800 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 461,872
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 401992
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/401992
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4211/461,3800/872 is 1/401992
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 461,872 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(461,872) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(461,872) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(461,872) = ( 461 × 872 ) / 1
LCM(461,872) = 401992 / 1
LCM(461,872) = 401992
