Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7440,5970 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7440,5970 is 30.
Lets's calculate LCM of 941,8626
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8117066
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 30/8117066
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7440/941,5970/8626 is 30/8117066
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 941,8626 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(941,8626) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(941,8626) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(941,8626) = ( 941 × 8626 ) / 1
LCM(941,8626) = 8117066 / 1
LCM(941,8626) = 8117066
