Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7856,3150 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7856,3150 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 911,585
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 532935
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/532935
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7856/911,3150/585 is 2/532935
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 911,585 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(911,585) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(911,585) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(911,585) = ( 911 × 585 ) / 1
LCM(911,585) = 532935 / 1
LCM(911,585) = 532935
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
