Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3865,9475 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3865,9475 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 421,224
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 94304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/94304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3865/421,9475/224 is 5/94304
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 421,224 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(421,224) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(421,224) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(421,224) = ( 421 × 224 ) / 1
LCM(421,224) = 94304 / 1
LCM(421,224) = 94304
