Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8664,9318 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8664,9318 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,420
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 29820
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/29820
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8664/71,9318/420 is 6/29820
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 71,420 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,420) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,420) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,420) = ( 71 × 420 ) / 1
LCM(71,420) = 29820 / 1
LCM(71,420) = 29820
