Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2993,6952 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2993,6952 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 617,514
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 317138
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/317138
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2993/617,6952/514 is 1/317138
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 617,514 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(617,514) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(617,514) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(617,514) = ( 617 × 514 ) / 1
LCM(617,514) = 317138 / 1
LCM(617,514) = 317138
