Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3073,3787 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3073,3787 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 960,2989
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2869440
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/2869440
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3073/960,3787/2989 is 7/2869440
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 960,2989 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(960,2989) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(960,2989) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(960,2989) = ( 960 × 2989 ) / 1
LCM(960,2989) = 2869440 / 1
LCM(960,2989) = 2869440
