Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7626,9906 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7626,9906 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 237,940
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 222780
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/222780
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7626/237,9906/940 is 6/222780
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 237,940 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(237,940) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(237,940) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(237,940) = ( 237 × 940 ) / 1
LCM(237,940) = 222780 / 1
LCM(237,940) = 222780
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
