Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6958,8955 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6958,8955 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 637,316
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 201292
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/201292
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6958/637,8955/316 is 1/201292
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 637,316 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(637,316) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(637,316) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(637,316) = ( 637 × 316 ) / 1
LCM(637,316) = 201292 / 1
LCM(637,316) = 201292
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
