Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7360,8992 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7360,8992 is 32.
Lets's calculate LCM of 851,126
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 107226
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 32/107226
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7360/851,8992/126 is 32/107226
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 851,126 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(851,126) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(851,126) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(851,126) = ( 851 × 126 ) / 1
LCM(851,126) = 107226 / 1
LCM(851,126) = 107226
