Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7386,9492 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7386,9492 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 908,791
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 718228
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/718228
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7386/908,9492/791 is 6/718228
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 908,791 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(908,791) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(908,791) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(908,791) = ( 908 × 791 ) / 1
LCM(908,791) = 718228 / 1
LCM(908,791) = 718228
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
