Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1037,4541 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1037,4541 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 383,168
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 64344
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/64344
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1037/383,4541/168 is 1/64344
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 383,168 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(383,168) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(383,168) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(383,168) = ( 383 × 168 ) / 1
LCM(383,168) = 64344 / 1
LCM(383,168) = 64344
