Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6984,7020 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6984,7020 is 36.
Lets's calculate LCM of 119,3134
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 372946
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 36/372946
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6984/119,7020/3134 is 36/372946
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 119,3134 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(119,3134) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(119,3134) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(119,3134) = ( 119 × 3134 ) / 1
LCM(119,3134) = 372946 / 1
LCM(119,3134) = 372946
