1,2,3,6,23,31,46,62,69,93,138,186,713,1426,2139,4278
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 961,4278 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 961,4278 is 31.
Lets's calculate LCM of 96,293
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 28128
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 31/28128
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 961/96,4278/293 is 31/28128
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 96,293 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(96,293) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(96,293) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(96,293) = ( 96 × 293 ) / 1
LCM(96,293) = 28128 / 1
LCM(96,293) = 28128
