Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8849,5590 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8849,5590 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 74,970
2 | 74, 970 |
37, 485 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 37 x 485 = 35890
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/35890
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8849/74,5590/970 is 1/35890
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 74,970 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(74,970) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(74,970) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(74,970) = ( 74 × 970 ) / 2
LCM(74,970) = 71780 / 2
LCM(74,970) = 35890
