Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 116,3080 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 116,3080 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 251,9686
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2431186
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2431186
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 116/251,3080/9686 is 4/2431186
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 251,9686 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(251,9686) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(251,9686) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(251,9686) = ( 251 × 9686 ) / 1
LCM(251,9686) = 2431186 / 1
LCM(251,9686) = 2431186
