Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8589,9900 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8589,9900 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 373,470
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 175310
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/175310
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8589/373,9900/470 is 3/175310
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 373,470 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(373,470) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(373,470) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(373,470) = ( 373 × 470 ) / 1
LCM(373,470) = 175310 / 1
LCM(373,470) = 175310
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
