We found the factors 8544,4428 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8544,4428 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 730,971
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 708830
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/708830
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8544/730,4428/971 is 12/708830
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 730,971 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(730,971) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(730,971) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(730,971) = ( 730 × 971 ) / 1
LCM(730,971) = 708830 / 1
LCM(730,971) = 708830
