Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5005,9516 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5005,9516 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,121
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2057
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/2057
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5005/17,9516/121 is 13/2057
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 17,121 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,121) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,121) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,121) = ( 17 × 121 ) / 1
LCM(17,121) = 2057 / 1
LCM(17,121) = 2057
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
