:1,5,193,965
Now, list down the factors of 172
:1,2,4,43,86,172
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 965,172 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 965,172 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 82,8503
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 697246
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/697246
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 965/82,172/8503 is 1/697246
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 82,8503 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(82,8503) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(82,8503) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(82,8503) = ( 82 × 8503 ) / 1
LCM(82,8503) = 697246 / 1
LCM(82,8503) = 697246
