Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6850,5226 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6850,5226 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 31,385
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 11935
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/11935
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6850/31,5226/385 is 2/11935
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 31,385 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(31,385) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(31,385) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(31,385) = ( 31 × 385 ) / 1
LCM(31,385) = 11935 / 1
LCM(31,385) = 11935
