Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6146,2206 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6146,2206 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 986,1231
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1213766
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1213766
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6146/986,2206/1231 is 2/1213766
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 986,1231 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(986,1231) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(986,1231) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(986,1231) = ( 986 × 1231 ) / 1
LCM(986,1231) = 1213766 / 1
LCM(986,1231) = 1213766
