:1,2,4,47,94,188
Now, list down the factors of 797
:1,797
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 188,797 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 188,797 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 858,965
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 827970
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/827970
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 188/858,797/965 is 1/827970
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 858,965 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(858,965) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(858,965) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(858,965) = ( 858 × 965 ) / 1
LCM(858,965) = 827970 / 1
LCM(858,965) = 827970
