We found the factors 4196,2120 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4196,2120 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 955,2351
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2245205
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/2245205
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4196/955,2120/2351 is 4/2245205
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 955,2351 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(955,2351) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(955,2351) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(955,2351) = ( 955 × 2351 ) / 1
LCM(955,2351) = 2245205 / 1
LCM(955,2351) = 2245205
