We found the factors 408,8364 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 408,8364 is 204.
Lets's calculate LCM of 601,3930
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2361930
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 204/2361930
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 408/601,8364/3930 is 204/2361930
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 601,3930 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(601,3930) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(601,3930) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(601,3930) = ( 601 × 3930 ) / 1
LCM(601,3930) = 2361930 / 1
LCM(601,3930) = 2361930
