Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8587,2136 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8587,2136 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 941,6226
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5858666
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/5858666
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8587/941,2136/6226 is 1/5858666
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 941,6226 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(941,6226) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(941,6226) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(941,6226) = ( 941 × 6226 ) / 1
LCM(941,6226) = 5858666 / 1
LCM(941,6226) = 5858666
