Lets's calculate GCF of 950,962
2 | 950, 962 |
475, 481 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 2 = 2
Now, list down the factors of 950
:1,2,5,10,19,25,38,50,95,190,475,950
Now, list down the factors of 962
:1,2,13,26,37,74,481,962
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 950,962 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 950,962 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 33,851
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 28083
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/28083
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 950/33,962/851 is 2/28083
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 33,851 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(33,851) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(33,851) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(33,851) = ( 33 × 851 ) / 1
LCM(33,851) = 28083 / 1
LCM(33,851) = 28083
