Lets's calculate GCF of 8971,9070
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 8971
:1,8971
Now, list down the factors of 9070
:1,2,5,10,907,1814,4535,9070
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8971,9070 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8971,9070 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 493,236
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 116348
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/116348
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8971/493,9070/236 is 1/116348
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 493,236 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(493,236) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(493,236) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(493,236) = ( 493 × 236 ) / 1
LCM(493,236) = 116348 / 1
LCM(493,236) = 116348
