Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3938,3509 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3938,3509 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 139,3900
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 542100
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/542100
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3938/139,3509/3900 is 11/542100
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 139,3900 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(139,3900) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(139,3900) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(139,3900) = ( 139 × 3900 ) / 1
LCM(139,3900) = 542100 / 1
LCM(139,3900) = 542100
