Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2186,2136 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2186,2136 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 783,5140
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4024620
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4024620
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2186/783,2136/5140 is 2/4024620
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 783,5140 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(783,5140) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(783,5140) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(783,5140) = ( 783 × 5140 ) / 1
LCM(783,5140) = 4024620 / 1
LCM(783,5140) = 4024620
