Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5371,8384 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5371,8384 is 131.
Lets's calculate LCM of 213,469
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 99897
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 131/99897
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5371/213,8384/469 is 131/99897
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 213,469 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(213,469) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(213,469) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(213,469) = ( 213 × 469 ) / 1
LCM(213,469) = 99897 / 1
LCM(213,469) = 99897
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
