Now, list down the factors of 94
:1,2,47,94
Now, list down the factors of 88
:1,2,4,8,11,22,44,88
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 94,88 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 94,88 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 586,5321
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3118106
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/3118106
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 94/586,88/5321 is 2/3118106
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 586,5321 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(586,5321) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(586,5321) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(586,5321) = ( 586 × 5321 ) / 1
LCM(586,5321) = 3118106 / 1
LCM(586,5321) = 3118106
