Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4036,7940 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4036,7940 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 95,829
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 78755
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/78755
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4036/95,7940/829 is 4/78755
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 95,829 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(95,829) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(95,829) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(95,829) = ( 95 × 829 ) / 1
LCM(95,829) = 78755 / 1
LCM(95,829) = 78755
