Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7224,3150 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7224,3150 is 42.
Lets's calculate LCM of 953,900
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 857700
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 42/857700
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7224/953,3150/900 is 42/857700
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 953,900 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(953,900) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(953,900) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(953,900) = ( 953 × 900 ) / 1
LCM(953,900) = 857700 / 1
LCM(953,900) = 857700
