We found the factors 9901,5967 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9901,5967 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 138,185
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 25530
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/25530
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9901/138,5967/185 is 1/25530
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 138,185 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(138,185) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(138,185) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(138,185) = ( 138 × 185 ) / 1
LCM(138,185) = 25530 / 1
LCM(138,185) = 25530
