Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7401,1917 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7401,1917 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 891,1400
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1247400
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/1247400
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7401/891,1917/1400 is 3/1247400
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 891,1400 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(891,1400) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(891,1400) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(891,1400) = ( 891 × 1400 ) / 1
LCM(891,1400) = 1247400 / 1
LCM(891,1400) = 1247400
