Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 957,638 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 957,638 is 319.
Lets's calculate LCM of 2466,9959
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 24558894
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 319/24558894
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 957/2466,638/9959 is 319/24558894
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 2466,9959 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(2466,9959) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(2466,9959) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(2466,9959) = ( 2466 × 9959 ) / 1
LCM(2466,9959) = 24558894 / 1
LCM(2466,9959) = 24558894
