Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9898,6002 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9898,6002 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 431,176
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 75856
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/75856
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9898/431,6002/176 is 2/75856
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 431,176 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(431,176) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(431,176) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(431,176) = ( 431 × 176 ) / 1
LCM(431,176) = 75856 / 1
LCM(431,176) = 75856
