Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9573,5787 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9573,5787 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 399,146
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 58254
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/58254
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9573/399,5787/146 is 3/58254
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 399,146 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(399,146) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(399,146) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(399,146) = ( 399 × 146 ) / 1
LCM(399,146) = 58254 / 1
LCM(399,146) = 58254
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
