Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1087,3559 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1087,3559 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 403,8174
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3294122
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3294122
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1087/403,3559/8174 is 1/3294122
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 403,8174 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(403,8174) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(403,8174) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(403,8174) = ( 403 × 8174 ) / 1
LCM(403,8174) = 3294122 / 1
LCM(403,8174) = 3294122
