Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9400,4221 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9400,4221 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 768,950
2 | 768, 950 |
384, 475 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 384 x 475 = 364800
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/364800
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9400/768,4221/950 is 1/364800
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 768,950 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(768,950) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(768,950) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(768,950) = ( 768 × 950 ) / 2
LCM(768,950) = 729600 / 2
LCM(768,950) = 364800
