Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5225,8476 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5225,8476 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 18,989
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17802
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/17802
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5225/18,8476/989 is 1/17802
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 18,989 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(18,989) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(18,989) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(18,989) = ( 18 × 989 ) / 1
LCM(18,989) = 17802 / 1
LCM(18,989) = 17802
