1,9973
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 984,9973 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 984,9973 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 374,580
2 | 374, 580 |
187, 290 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 187 x 290 = 108460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/108460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 984/374,9973/580 is 1/108460
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 374,580 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(374,580) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(374,580) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(374,580) = ( 374 × 580 ) / 2
LCM(374,580) = 216920 / 2
LCM(374,580) = 108460
