Now, list down the factors of 9690
:1,2,3,5,6,10,15,17,19,30,34,38,51,57,85,95,102,114,170,190,255,285,323,510,570,646,969,1615,1938,3230,4845,9690
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5970,9690 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5970,9690 is 30.
Lets's calculate LCM of 868,137
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 118916
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 30/118916
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5970/868,9690/137 is 30/118916
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 868,137 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(868,137) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(868,137) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(868,137) = ( 868 × 137 ) / 1
LCM(868,137) = 118916 / 1
LCM(868,137) = 118916
