Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7314,4149 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7314,4149 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 572,359
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 205348
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/205348
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7314/572,4149/359 is 3/205348
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 572,359 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(572,359) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(572,359) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(572,359) = ( 572 × 359 ) / 1
LCM(572,359) = 205348 / 1
LCM(572,359) = 205348
