Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8385,3729 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8385,3729 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 31,799
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 24769
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/24769
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8385/31,3729/799 is 3/24769
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 31,799 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(31,799) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(31,799) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(31,799) = ( 31 × 799 ) / 1
LCM(31,799) = 24769 / 1
LCM(31,799) = 24769
