Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4247,2780 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4247,2780 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 959,982
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 941738
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/941738
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4247/959,2780/982 is 1/941738
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 959,982 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(959,982) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(959,982) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(959,982) = ( 959 × 982 ) / 1
LCM(959,982) = 941738 / 1
LCM(959,982) = 941738
