1,7213
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8442,7213 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8442,7213 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 842,875
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 736750
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/736750
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8442/842,7213/875 is 1/736750
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 842,875 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(842,875) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(842,875) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(842,875) = ( 842 × 875 ) / 1
LCM(842,875) = 736750 / 1
LCM(842,875) = 736750
