Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 756,1873 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 756,1873 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 196,5031
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 986076
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/986076
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 756/196,1873/5031 is 1/986076
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 196,5031 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(196,5031) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(196,5031) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(196,5031) = ( 196 × 5031 ) / 1
LCM(196,5031) = 986076 / 1
LCM(196,5031) = 986076
