1,2,761,1522
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3927,1522 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3927,1522 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 970,204
2 | 970, 204 |
485, 102 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 485 x 102 = 98940
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/98940
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3927/970,1522/204 is 1/98940
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 970,204 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(970,204) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(970,204) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(970,204) = ( 970 × 204 ) / 2
LCM(970,204) = 197880 / 2
LCM(970,204) = 98940
