Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 308,9992 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 308,9992 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 97,702
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 68094
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/68094
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 308/97,9992/702 is 4/68094
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 97,702 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(97,702) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(97,702) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(97,702) = ( 97 × 702 ) / 1
LCM(97,702) = 68094 / 1
LCM(97,702) = 68094
