Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9178,9021 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9178,9021 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 957,517
11 | 957, 517 |
87, 47 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 11 x 87 x 47 = 44979
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/44979
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9178/957,9021/517 is 1/44979
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 957,517 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(957,517) = 11
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(957,517) x common factors =11 x 1 = 11
LCM(957,517) = ( 957 × 517 ) / 11
LCM(957,517) = 494769 / 11
LCM(957,517) = 44979
