Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 970,7432 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 970,7432 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 676,966
2 | 676, 966 |
338, 483 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 338 x 483 = 326508
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/326508
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 970/676,7432/966 is 2/326508
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 676,966 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(676,966) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(676,966) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(676,966) = ( 676 × 966 ) / 2
LCM(676,966) = 653016 / 2
LCM(676,966) = 326508
