Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3766,9730 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3766,9730 is 14.
Lets's calculate LCM of 311,131
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 40741
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/40741
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3766/311,9730/131 is 14/40741
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 311,131 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(311,131) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(311,131) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(311,131) = ( 311 × 131 ) / 1
LCM(311,131) = 40741 / 1
LCM(311,131) = 40741
