Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5888,4954 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5888,4954 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 126,8251
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1039626
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1039626
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5888/126,4954/8251 is 2/1039626
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 126,8251 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(126,8251) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(126,8251) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(126,8251) = ( 126 × 8251 ) / 1
LCM(126,8251) = 1039626 / 1
LCM(126,8251) = 1039626
