Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1495,7400 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1495,7400 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 935,202
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 188870
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/188870
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1495/935,7400/202 is 5/188870
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 935,202 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(935,202) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(935,202) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(935,202) = ( 935 × 202 ) / 1
LCM(935,202) = 188870 / 1
LCM(935,202) = 188870
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
