:1,2,3,6,677,1354,2031,4062
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3680,4062 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3680,4062 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 981,320
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 313920
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/313920
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3680/981,4062/320 is 2/313920
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 981,320 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(981,320) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(981,320) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(981,320) = ( 981 × 320 ) / 1
LCM(981,320) = 313920 / 1
LCM(981,320) = 313920
