Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7000,1428 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7000,1428 is 28.
Lets's calculate LCM of 731,6871
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5022701
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 28/5022701
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7000/731,1428/6871 is 28/5022701
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 731,6871 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(731,6871) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(731,6871) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(731,6871) = ( 731 × 6871 ) / 1
LCM(731,6871) = 5022701 / 1
LCM(731,6871) = 5022701
