Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5950,4160 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5950,4160 is 10.
Lets's calculate LCM of 303,9917
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3004851
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 10/3004851
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5950/303,4160/9917 is 10/3004851
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 303,9917 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(303,9917) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(303,9917) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(303,9917) = ( 303 × 9917 ) / 1
LCM(303,9917) = 3004851 / 1
LCM(303,9917) = 3004851
