Lets's calculate GCF of 186,2883
3 | 186, 2883 |
31 | 62, 961 |
2, 31 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 31 = 93
Now, list down the factors of 186
:1,2,3,6,31,62,93,186
Now, list down the factors of 2883
:1,3,31,93,961,2883
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 186,2883 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 186,2883 is 93.
Lets's calculate LCM of 124,197
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 24428
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 93/24428
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 186/124,2883/197 is 93/24428
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 124,197 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(124,197) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(124,197) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(124,197) = ( 124 × 197 ) / 1
LCM(124,197) = 24428 / 1
LCM(124,197) = 24428
