Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9600,5505 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9600,5505 is 15.
Lets's calculate LCM of 305,931
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 283955
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 15/283955
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9600/305,5505/931 is 15/283955
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 305,931 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(305,931) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(305,931) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(305,931) = ( 305 × 931 ) / 1
LCM(305,931) = 283955 / 1
LCM(305,931) = 283955
