Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5858,2012 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5858,2012 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 617,7966
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4915022
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4915022
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5858/617,2012/7966 is 2/4915022
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 617,7966 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(617,7966) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(617,7966) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(617,7966) = ( 617 × 7966 ) / 1
LCM(617,7966) = 4915022 / 1
LCM(617,7966) = 4915022
