Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9002,7440 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9002,7440 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 973,9579
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9320367
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/9320367
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9002/973,7440/9579 is 2/9320367
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 973,9579 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(973,9579) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(973,9579) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(973,9579) = ( 973 × 9579 ) / 1
LCM(973,9579) = 9320367 / 1
LCM(973,9579) = 9320367
