:1,2,7,14,71,142,497,994
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 672,994 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 672,994 is 14.
Lets's calculate LCM of 35,3707
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 129745
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/129745
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 672/35,994/3707 is 14/129745
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 35,3707 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(35,3707) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(35,3707) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(35,3707) = ( 35 × 3707 ) / 1
LCM(35,3707) = 129745 / 1
LCM(35,3707) = 129745
