Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6938,6464 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6938,6464 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 931,1329
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1237299
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1237299
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6938/931,6464/1329 is 2/1237299
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 931,1329 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(931,1329) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(931,1329) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(931,1329) = ( 931 × 1329 ) / 1
LCM(931,1329) = 1237299 / 1
LCM(931,1329) = 1237299
