Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 966,5001 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 966,5001 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 962,8353
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 8035586
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/8035586
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 966/962,5001/8353 is 3/8035586
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 962,8353 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(962,8353) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(962,8353) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(962,8353) = ( 962 × 8353 ) / 1
LCM(962,8353) = 8035586 / 1
LCM(962,8353) = 8035586
