Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4227,1227 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4227,1227 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 209,3672
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 767448
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/767448
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4227/209,1227/3672 is 3/767448
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 209,3672 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(209,3672) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(209,3672) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(209,3672) = ( 209 × 3672 ) / 1
LCM(209,3672) = 767448 / 1
LCM(209,3672) = 767448
