:1,193
Now, list down the factors of 596
:1,2,4,149,298,596
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 193,596 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 193,596 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 21,3746
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 78666
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/78666
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 193/21,596/3746 is 1/78666
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 21,3746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(21,3746) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(21,3746) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(21,3746) = ( 21 × 3746 ) / 1
LCM(21,3746) = 78666 / 1
LCM(21,3746) = 78666
