Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7832,6884 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7832,6884 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 43,321
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 13803
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/13803
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7832/43,6884/321 is 4/13803
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 43,321 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(43,321) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(43,321) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(43,321) = ( 43 × 321 ) / 1
LCM(43,321) = 13803 / 1
LCM(43,321) = 13803
