Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8640,6920 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8640,6920 is 40.
Lets's calculate LCM of 222,7573
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1681206
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 40/1681206
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8640/222,6920/7573 is 40/1681206
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 222,7573 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(222,7573) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(222,7573) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(222,7573) = ( 222 × 7573 ) / 1
LCM(222,7573) = 1681206 / 1
LCM(222,7573) = 1681206
