Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1143,3158 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1143,3158 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 281,3384
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 950904
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/950904
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1143/281,3158/3384 is 1/950904
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 281,3384 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(281,3384) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(281,3384) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(281,3384) = ( 281 × 3384 ) / 1
LCM(281,3384) = 950904 / 1
LCM(281,3384) = 950904
