Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7678,5042 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7678,5042 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 99,316
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 31284
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/31284
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7678/99,5042/316 is 2/31284
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 99,316 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(99,316) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(99,316) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(99,316) = ( 99 × 316 ) / 1
LCM(99,316) = 31284 / 1
LCM(99,316) = 31284
