1,2,4,1493,2986,5972
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8915,5972 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8915,5972 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 609,1183
7 | 609, 1183 |
87, 169 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 87 x 169 = 102921
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/102921
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8915/609,5972/1183 is 1/102921
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 609,1183 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(609,1183) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(609,1183) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(609,1183) = ( 609 × 1183 ) / 7
LCM(609,1183) = 720447 / 7
LCM(609,1183) = 102921
