We found the factors 939,283 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 939,283 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 12,118
2 | 12, 118 |
6, 59 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 6 x 59 = 708
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/708
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 939/12,283/118 is 1/708
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 12,118 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(12,118) = 2
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(12,118) x common factors =2 x 1 = 2
LCM(12,118) = ( 12 × 118 ) / 2
LCM(12,118) = 1416 / 2
LCM(12,118) = 708
