∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 939
:1,3,313,939
Now, list down the factors of 138
:1,2,3,6,23,46,69,138
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 939,138 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 939,138 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 11,716
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7876
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/7876
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 939/11,138/716 is 3/7876
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 11,716 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(11,716) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(11,716) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(11,716) = ( 11 × 716 ) / 1
LCM(11,716) = 7876 / 1
LCM(11,716) = 7876
