Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5380,9926 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5380,9926 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 100,179
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 17900
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/17900
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5380/100,9926/179 is 2/17900
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 100,179 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(100,179) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(100,179) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(100,179) = ( 100 × 179 ) / 1
LCM(100,179) = 17900 / 1
LCM(100,179) = 17900
