We found the factors 5797,4000 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5797,4000 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 966,4462
2 | 966, 4462 |
23 | 483, 2231 |
21, 97 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 23 x 21 x 97 = 93702
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/93702
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5797/966,4000/4462 is 1/93702
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 966,4462 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(966,4462) = 46
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(966,4462) x common factors =46 x 1 = 46
LCM(966,4462) = ( 966 × 4462 ) / 46
LCM(966,4462) = 4310292 / 46
LCM(966,4462) = 93702
