Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7389,1469 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7389,1469 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 196,2991
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 586236
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/586236
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7389/196,1469/2991 is 1/586236
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 196,2991 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(196,2991) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(196,2991) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(196,2991) = ( 196 × 2991 ) / 1
LCM(196,2991) = 586236 / 1
LCM(196,2991) = 586236
