Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 994,4676 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 994,4676 is 14.
Lets's calculate LCM of 321,916
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 294036
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/294036
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 994/321,4676/916 is 14/294036
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 321,916 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(321,916) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(321,916) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(321,916) = ( 321 × 916 ) / 1
LCM(321,916) = 294036 / 1
LCM(321,916) = 294036
