So the greatest common factor 4243,3588 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 700,3620
2 | 700, 3620 |
2 | 350, 1810 |
5 | 175, 905 |
35, 181 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 5 x 35 x 181 = 126700
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/126700
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4243/700,3588/3620 is 1/126700
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 700,3620 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(700,3620) = 20
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(700,3620) x common factors =20 x 1 = 20
LCM(700,3620) = ( 700 × 3620 ) / 20
LCM(700,3620) = 2534000 / 20
LCM(700,3620) = 126700
