So the greatest common factor 5979,5876 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 229,9389
229 | 229, 9389 |
1, 41 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 229 x 1 x 41 = 9389
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9389
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5979/229,5876/9389 is 1/9389
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 229,9389 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(229,9389) = 229
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(229,9389) x common factors =229 x 1 = 229
LCM(229,9389) = ( 229 × 9389 ) / 229
LCM(229,9389) = 2150081 / 229
LCM(229,9389) = 9389
