Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3858,1660 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3858,1660 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 260,9431
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2452060
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2452060
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3858/260,1660/9431 is 2/2452060
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 260,9431 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(260,9431) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(260,9431) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(260,9431) = ( 260 × 9431 ) / 1
LCM(260,9431) = 2452060 / 1
LCM(260,9431) = 2452060
