Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 525,9983 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 525,9983 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 518,382
2 | 518, 382 |
259, 191 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 259 x 191 = 98938
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/98938
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 525/518,9983/382 is 1/98938
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 518,382 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(518,382) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(518,382) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(518,382) = ( 518 × 382 ) / 2
LCM(518,382) = 197876 / 2
LCM(518,382) = 98938
