Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3948,6732 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3948,6732 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 282,7085
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1997970
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/1997970
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3948/282,6732/7085 is 12/1997970
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 282,7085 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(282,7085) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(282,7085) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(282,7085) = ( 282 × 7085 ) / 1
LCM(282,7085) = 1997970 / 1
LCM(282,7085) = 1997970
