Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2268,9696 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2268,9696 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 188,271
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 50948
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/50948
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2268/188,9696/271 is 12/50948
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 188,271 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(188,271) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(188,271) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(188,271) = ( 188 × 271 ) / 1
LCM(188,271) = 50948 / 1
LCM(188,271) = 50948
