Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 432,3984 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 432,3984 is 48.
Lets's calculate LCM of 941,834
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 784794
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 48/784794
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 432/941,3984/834 is 48/784794
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 941,834 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(941,834) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(941,834) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(941,834) = ( 941 × 834 ) / 1
LCM(941,834) = 784794 / 1
LCM(941,834) = 784794
