Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5843,9274 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5843,9274 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 236,305
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 71980
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/71980
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5843/236,9274/305 is 1/71980
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 236,305 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(236,305) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(236,305) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(236,305) = ( 236 × 305 ) / 1
LCM(236,305) = 71980 / 1
LCM(236,305) = 71980
