Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 997,744 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 997,744 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 9870,1874
2 | 9870, 1874 |
4935, 937 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 4935 x 937 = 9248190
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9248190
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 997/9870,744/1874 is 1/9248190
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 9870,1874 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(9870,1874) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(9870,1874) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(9870,1874) = ( 9870 × 1874 ) / 2
LCM(9870,1874) = 18496380 / 2
LCM(9870,1874) = 9248190
