Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 195,731 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 195,731 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 904,982
2 | 904, 982 |
452, 491 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 452 x 491 = 443864
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/443864
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 195/904,731/982 is 1/443864
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 904,982 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(904,982) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(904,982) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(904,982) = ( 904 × 982 ) / 2
LCM(904,982) = 887728 / 2
LCM(904,982) = 443864
