Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3697,1531 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3697,1531 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 860,7779
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6689940
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6689940
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3697/860,1531/7779 is 1/6689940
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 860,7779 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(860,7779) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(860,7779) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(860,7779) = ( 860 × 7779 ) / 1
LCM(860,7779) = 6689940 / 1
LCM(860,7779) = 6689940
