Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7897,3468 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7897,3468 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 15,796
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 11940
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/11940
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7897/15,3468/796 is 1/11940
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 15,796 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(15,796) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(15,796) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(15,796) = ( 15 × 796 ) / 1
LCM(15,796) = 11940 / 1
LCM(15,796) = 11940
