:1,3,23,29,69,87,667,2001
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 918,2001 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 918,2001 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 942,967
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 910914
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/910914
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 918/942,2001/967 is 3/910914
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 942,967 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(942,967) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(942,967) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(942,967) = ( 942 × 967 ) / 1
LCM(942,967) = 910914 / 1
LCM(942,967) = 910914
