Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7021,4360 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7021,4360 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 387,218
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 84366
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/84366
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7021/387,4360/218 is 1/84366
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 387,218 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(387,218) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(387,218) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(387,218) = ( 387 × 218 ) / 1
LCM(387,218) = 84366 / 1
LCM(387,218) = 84366
