Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1272,7617 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1272,7617 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 820,6403
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5250460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/5250460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1272/820,7617/6403 is 3/5250460
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 820,6403 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(820,6403) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(820,6403) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(820,6403) = ( 820 × 6403 ) / 1
LCM(820,6403) = 5250460 / 1
LCM(820,6403) = 5250460
