Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8418,6786 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8418,6786 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,122
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5734
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/5734
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8418/47,6786/122 is 6/5734
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 47,122 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,122) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,122) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,122) = ( 47 × 122 ) / 1
LCM(47,122) = 5734 / 1
LCM(47,122) = 5734
