Now, list down the factors of 4461
:1,3,1487,4461
Now, list down the factors of 7704
:1,2,3,4,6,8,9,12,18,24,36,72,107,214,321,428,642,856,963,1284,1926,2568,3852,7704
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4461,7704 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4461,7704 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 283,1386
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 392238
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/392238
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4461/283,7704/1386 is 3/392238
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 283,1386 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(283,1386) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(283,1386) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(283,1386) = ( 283 × 1386 ) / 1
LCM(283,1386) = 392238 / 1
LCM(283,1386) = 392238
