Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9954,1188 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9954,1188 is 18.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,125
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5875
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 18/5875
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9954/47,1188/125 is 18/5875
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 47,125 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,125) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,125) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,125) = ( 47 × 125 ) / 1
LCM(47,125) = 5875 / 1
LCM(47,125) = 5875
