Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1842,9720 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1842,9720 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 710,307
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 217970
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/217970
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1842/710,9720/307 is 6/217970
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 710,307 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(710,307) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(710,307) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(710,307) = ( 710 × 307 ) / 1
LCM(710,307) = 217970 / 1
LCM(710,307) = 217970
