1,3313
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1445,3313 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1445,3313 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 950,3938
2 | 950, 3938 |
475, 1969 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 475 x 1969 = 1870550
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1870550
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1445/950,3313/3938 is 1/1870550
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 950,3938 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(950,3938) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(950,3938) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(950,3938) = ( 950 × 3938 ) / 2
LCM(950,3938) = 3741100 / 2
LCM(950,3938) = 1870550
