Now, list down the factors of 9996
:1,2,3,4,6,7,12,14,17,21,28,34,42,49,51,68,84,98,102,119,147,196,204,238,294,357,476,588,714,833,1428,1666,2499,3332,4998,9996
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1785,9996 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1785,9996 is 357.
Lets's calculate LCM of 39,545
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21255
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 357/21255
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1785/39,9996/545 is 357/21255
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 39,545 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(39,545) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(39,545) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(39,545) = ( 39 × 545 ) / 1
LCM(39,545) = 21255 / 1
LCM(39,545) = 21255
