Lets's calculate GCF of 386,263
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 386
:1,2,193,386
Now, list down the factors of 263
:1,263
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 386,263 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 386,263 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 20,991
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19820
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19820
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 386/20,263/991 is 1/19820
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 20,991 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(20,991) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(20,991) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(20,991) = ( 20 × 991 ) / 1
LCM(20,991) = 19820 / 1
LCM(20,991) = 19820
