1,2,4,1741,3482,6964
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 938,6964 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 938,6964 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 951,203
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 193053
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/193053
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 938/951,6964/203 is 2/193053
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 951,203 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(951,203) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(951,203) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(951,203) = ( 951 × 203 ) / 1
LCM(951,203) = 193053 / 1
LCM(951,203) = 193053
