Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3585,7200 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3585,7200 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 213,718
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 152934
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/152934
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3585/213,7200/718 is 15/152934
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 213,718 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(213,718) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(213,718) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(213,718) = ( 213 × 718 ) / 1
LCM(213,718) = 152934 / 1
LCM(213,718) = 152934
