Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7487,8784 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7487,8784 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 237,465
3 | 237, 465 |
79, 155 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 79 x 155 = 36735
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/36735
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7487/237,8784/465 is 1/36735
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 237,465 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(237,465) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(237,465) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(237,465) = ( 237 × 465 ) / 3
LCM(237,465) = 110205 / 3
LCM(237,465) = 36735
