Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8806,8660 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8806,8660 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 494,1959
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 967746
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/967746
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8806/494,8660/1959 is 2/967746
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 494,1959 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(494,1959) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(494,1959) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(494,1959) = ( 494 × 1959 ) / 1
LCM(494,1959) = 967746 / 1
LCM(494,1959) = 967746
