Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 198,744 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 198,744 is 6.
Lets's calculate LCM of 98,8063
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 790174
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 6/790174
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 198/98,744/8063 is 6/790174
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 98,8063 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(98,8063) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(98,8063) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(98,8063) = ( 98 × 8063 ) / 1
LCM(98,8063) = 790174 / 1
LCM(98,8063) = 790174
