Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7251,4032 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7251,4032 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 489,797
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 389733
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/389733
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7251/489,4032/797 is 3/389733
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 489,797 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(489,797) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(489,797) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(489,797) = ( 489 × 797 ) / 1
LCM(489,797) = 389733 / 1
LCM(489,797) = 389733
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
