Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8272,1700 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8272,1700 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 24,595
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 14280
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/14280
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8272/24,1700/595 is 4/14280
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 24,595 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(24,595) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(24,595) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(24,595) = ( 24 × 595 ) / 1
LCM(24,595) = 14280 / 1
LCM(24,595) = 14280
