Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5772,9072 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5772,9072 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 953,940
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 895820
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/895820
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5772/953,9072/940 is 12/895820
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 953,940 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(953,940) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(953,940) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(953,940) = ( 953 × 940 ) / 1
LCM(953,940) = 895820 / 1
LCM(953,940) = 895820
