We found the factors 9708,3624 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9708,3624 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 309,272
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 84048
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/84048
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9708/309,3624/272 is 12/84048
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 309,272 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(309,272) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(309,272) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(309,272) = ( 309 × 272 ) / 1
LCM(309,272) = 84048 / 1
LCM(309,272) = 84048
