Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5956,8547 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5956,8547 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 686,275
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 188650
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/188650
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5956/686,8547/275 is 1/188650
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 686,275 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(686,275) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(686,275) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(686,275) = ( 686 × 275 ) / 1
LCM(686,275) = 188650 / 1
LCM(686,275) = 188650
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
