Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8740,9025 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8740,9025 is 95.
Lets's calculate LCM of 283,986
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 279038
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 95/279038
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8740/283,9025/986 is 95/279038
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 283,986 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(283,986) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(283,986) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(283,986) = ( 283 × 986 ) / 1
LCM(283,986) = 279038 / 1
LCM(283,986) = 279038
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
