Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7074,3036 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7074,3036 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 786,1643
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1291398
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/1291398
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7074/786,3036/1643 is 6/1291398
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 786,1643 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(786,1643) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(786,1643) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(786,1643) = ( 786 × 1643 ) / 1
LCM(786,1643) = 1291398 / 1
LCM(786,1643) = 1291398
