1,2,3,6,991,1982,2973,5946
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6720,5946 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6720,5946 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 725,1869
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1355025
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/1355025
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6720/725,5946/1869 is 6/1355025
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 725,1869 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(725,1869) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(725,1869) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(725,1869) = ( 725 × 1869 ) / 1
LCM(725,1869) = 1355025 / 1
LCM(725,1869) = 1355025
