∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 1137
:1,3,379,1137
Now, list down the factors of 1864
:1,2,4,8,233,466,932,1864
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1137,1864 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1137,1864 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 245,359
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 87955
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/87955
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1137/245,1864/359 is 1/87955
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 245,359 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(245,359) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(245,359) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(245,359) = ( 245 × 359 ) / 1
LCM(245,359) = 87955 / 1
LCM(245,359) = 87955
