1,2,2687,5374
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9336,5374 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9336,5374 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,370
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 26270
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/26270
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9336/71,5374/370 is 2/26270
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 71,370 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,370) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,370) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,370) = ( 71 × 370 ) / 1
LCM(71,370) = 26270 / 1
LCM(71,370) = 26270
