Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4150,1720 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4150,1720 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 701,2001
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1402701
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/1402701
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4150/701,1720/2001 is 10/1402701
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 701,2001 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(701,2001) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(701,2001) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(701,2001) = ( 701 × 2001 ) / 1
LCM(701,2001) = 1402701 / 1
LCM(701,2001) = 1402701
