We found the factors 9342,8760 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9342,8760 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 787,2244
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1766028
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/1766028
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9342/787,8760/2244 is 6/1766028
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 787,2244 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(787,2244) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(787,2244) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(787,2244) = ( 787 × 2244 ) / 1
LCM(787,2244) = 1766028 / 1
LCM(787,2244) = 1766028
