Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5919,4950 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5919,4950 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,316
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 27492
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/27492
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5919/87,4950/316 is 3/27492
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 87,316 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,316) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(87,316) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(87,316) = ( 87 × 316 ) / 1
LCM(87,316) = 27492 / 1
LCM(87,316) = 27492
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
