Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5239,3120 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5239,3120 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 98,205
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 20090
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/20090
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5239/98,3120/205 is 13/20090
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 98,205 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(98,205) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(98,205) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(98,205) = ( 98 × 205 ) / 1
LCM(98,205) = 20090 / 1
LCM(98,205) = 20090
