Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9368,7968 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9368,7968 is 8.
Lets's calculate LCM of 65,956
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 62140
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 8/62140
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9368/65,7968/956 is 8/62140
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 65,956 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(65,956) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(65,956) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(65,956) = ( 65 × 956 ) / 1
LCM(65,956) = 62140 / 1
LCM(65,956) = 62140
