Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1449,8004 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1449,8004 is 69.
Lets's calculate LCM of 72,241
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17352
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 69/17352
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1449/72,8004/241 is 69/17352
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 72,241 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(72,241) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(72,241) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(72,241) = ( 72 × 241 ) / 1
LCM(72,241) = 17352 / 1
LCM(72,241) = 17352
