Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8727,3621 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8727,3621 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 791,811
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 641501
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/641501
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8727/791,3621/811 is 3/641501
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 791,811 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(791,811) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(791,811) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(791,811) = ( 791 × 811 ) / 1
LCM(791,811) = 641501 / 1
LCM(791,811) = 641501
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
