Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6917,4893 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6917,4893 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 380,946
2 | 380, 946 |
190, 473 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 190 x 473 = 179740
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/179740
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6917/380,4893/946 is 1/179740
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 380,946 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(380,946) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(380,946) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(380,946) = ( 380 × 946 ) / 2
LCM(380,946) = 359480 / 2
LCM(380,946) = 179740
