Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 935,4961 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 935,4961 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 197,227
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 44719
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/44719
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 935/197,4961/227 is 11/44719
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 197,227 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(197,227) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(197,227) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(197,227) = ( 197 × 227 ) / 1
LCM(197,227) = 44719 / 1
LCM(197,227) = 44719
