Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6987,3184 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6987,3184 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 964,1385
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1335140
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1335140
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6987/964,3184/1385 is 1/1335140
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 964,1385 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(964,1385) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(964,1385) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(964,1385) = ( 964 × 1385 ) / 1
LCM(964,1385) = 1335140 / 1
LCM(964,1385) = 1335140
