1,2,4,733,1466,2932
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7427,2932 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7427,2932 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 895,472
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 422440
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/422440
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7427/895,2932/472 is 1/422440
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 895,472 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(895,472) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(895,472) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(895,472) = ( 895 × 472 ) / 1
LCM(895,472) = 422440 / 1
LCM(895,472) = 422440
