We found the factors 4285,7420 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4285,7420 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 333,8340
3 | 333, 8340 |
111, 2780 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 111 x 2780 = 925740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/925740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4285/333,7420/8340 is 5/925740
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 333,8340 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(333,8340) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(333,8340) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(333,8340) = ( 333 × 8340 ) / 3
LCM(333,8340) = 2777220 / 3
LCM(333,8340) = 925740
