Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 930,2979 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 930,2979 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 509,952
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 484568
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/484568
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 930/509,2979/952 is 3/484568
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 509,952 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(509,952) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(509,952) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(509,952) = ( 509 × 952 ) / 1
LCM(509,952) = 484568 / 1
LCM(509,952) = 484568
