Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4008,4680 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4008,4680 is 24.
Lets's calculate LCM of 421,4782
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2013222
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 24/2013222
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4008/421,4680/4782 is 24/2013222
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 421,4782 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(421,4782) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(421,4782) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(421,4782) = ( 421 × 4782 ) / 1
LCM(421,4782) = 2013222 / 1
LCM(421,4782) = 2013222
