∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 23 = 23
Now, list down the factors of 989
:1,23,43,989
Now, list down the factors of 276
:1,2,3,4,6,12,23,46,69,92,138,276
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 989,276 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 989,276 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 13,186
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2418
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/2418
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 989/13,276/186 is 23/2418
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 13,186 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(13,186) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(13,186) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(13,186) = ( 13 × 186 ) / 1
LCM(13,186) = 2418 / 1
LCM(13,186) = 2418
