Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9924,9048 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9924,9048 is 12.
Lets's calculate LCM of 735,188
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 138180
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 12/138180
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9924/735,9048/188 is 12/138180
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 735,188 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(735,188) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(735,188) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(735,188) = ( 735 × 188 ) / 1
LCM(735,188) = 138180 / 1
LCM(735,188) = 138180
