Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9837,7224 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9837,7224 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 790,921
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 727590
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/727590
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9837/790,7224/921 is 3/727590
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 790,921 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(790,921) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(790,921) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(790,921) = ( 790 × 921 ) / 1
LCM(790,921) = 727590 / 1
LCM(790,921) = 727590
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
