Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7961,3420 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7961,3420 is 19.
Lets's calculate LCM of 595,8748
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5205060
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 19/5205060
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7961/595,3420/8748 is 19/5205060
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 595,8748 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(595,8748) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(595,8748) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(595,8748) = ( 595 × 8748 ) / 1
LCM(595,8748) = 5205060 / 1
LCM(595,8748) = 5205060
