:1,2,3,4,6,12,23,29,46,58,69,87,92,116,138,174,276,348,667,1334,2001,2668,4002,8004
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9939,8004 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9939,8004 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 397,426
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 169122
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/169122
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9939/397,8004/426 is 3/169122
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 397,426 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(397,426) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(397,426) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(397,426) = ( 397 × 426 ) / 1
LCM(397,426) = 169122 / 1
LCM(397,426) = 169122
