:1,2,1801,3602
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9500,3602 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9500,3602 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 802,2120
2 | 802, 2120 |
401, 1060 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 401 x 1060 = 850120
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/850120
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9500/802,3602/2120 is 2/850120
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 802,2120 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(802,2120) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(802,2120) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(802,2120) = ( 802 × 2120 ) / 2
LCM(802,2120) = 1700240 / 2
LCM(802,2120) = 850120
