Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3840,8676 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3840,8676 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 454,5861
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2660894
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/2660894
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3840/454,8676/5861 is 12/2660894
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 454,5861 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(454,5861) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(454,5861) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(454,5861) = ( 454 × 5861 ) / 1
LCM(454,5861) = 2660894 / 1
LCM(454,5861) = 2660894
