Now, list down the factors of 5873
:1,7,839,5873
Now, list down the factors of 3822
:1,2,3,6,7,13,14,21,26,39,42,49,78,91,98,147,182,273,294,546,637,1274,1911,3822
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5873,3822 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5873,3822 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 707,740
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 523180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/523180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5873/707,3822/740 is 7/523180
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 707,740 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(707,740) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(707,740) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(707,740) = ( 707 × 740 ) / 1
LCM(707,740) = 523180 / 1
LCM(707,740) = 523180
