Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4533,5142 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4533,5142 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 948,103
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 97644
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/97644
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4533/948,5142/103 is 3/97644
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 948,103 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(948,103) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(948,103) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(948,103) = ( 948 × 103 ) / 1
LCM(948,103) = 97644 / 1
LCM(948,103) = 97644
