Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5700,9432 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5700,9432 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 241,658
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 158578
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/158578
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5700/241,9432/658 is 12/158578
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 241,658 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(241,658) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(241,658) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(241,658) = ( 241 × 658 ) / 1
LCM(241,658) = 158578 / 1
LCM(241,658) = 158578
