Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 354,731 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 354,731 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 191,955
191 | 191, 955 |
1, 5 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 191 x 1 x 5 = 955
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/955
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 354/191,731/955 is 1/955
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 191,955 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(191,955) = 191
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(191,955) x common factors =191 x 1 = 191
LCM(191,955) = ( 191 × 955 ) / 191
LCM(191,955) = 182405 / 191
LCM(191,955) = 955
