Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4975,9842 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4975,9842 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 469,240
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 112560
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/112560
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4975/469,9842/240 is 1/112560
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 469,240 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(469,240) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(469,240) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(469,240) = ( 469 × 240 ) / 1
LCM(469,240) = 112560 / 1
LCM(469,240) = 112560
