Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6867,8736 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6867,8736 is 21.
Lets's calculate LCM of 970,427
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 414190
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 21/414190
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6867/970,8736/427 is 21/414190
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 970,427 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(970,427) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(970,427) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(970,427) = ( 970 × 427 ) / 1
LCM(970,427) = 414190 / 1
LCM(970,427) = 414190
