Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9518,5054 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9518,5054 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 340,317
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 107780
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/107780
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9518/340,5054/317 is 2/107780
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 340,317 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(340,317) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(340,317) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(340,317) = ( 340 × 317 ) / 1
LCM(340,317) = 107780 / 1
LCM(340,317) = 107780
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
