Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8629,9608 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8629,9608 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 18,286
2 | 18, 286 |
9, 143 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 9 x 143 = 2574
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2574
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8629/18,9608/286 is 1/2574
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 18,286 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(18,286) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(18,286) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(18,286) = ( 18 × 286 ) / 2
LCM(18,286) = 5148 / 2
LCM(18,286) = 2574
