:1,2,3,4,6,9,12,18,27,36,54,89,108,178,267,356,534,801,1068,1602,2403,3204,4806,9612
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7230,9612 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7230,9612 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 773,440
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 340120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/340120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7230/773,9612/440 is 6/340120
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 773,440 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(773,440) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(773,440) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(773,440) = ( 773 × 440 ) / 1
LCM(773,440) = 340120 / 1
LCM(773,440) = 340120
