1,3847
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5146,3847 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5146,3847 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 94,990
2 | 94, 990 |
47, 495 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 47 x 495 = 46530
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/46530
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5146/94,3847/990 is 1/46530
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 94,990 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(94,990) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(94,990) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(94,990) = ( 94 × 990 ) / 2
LCM(94,990) = 93060 / 2
LCM(94,990) = 46530
