:1,13,769,9997
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1270,9997 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1270,9997 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 287,258
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 74046
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/74046
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1270/287,9997/258 is 1/74046
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 287,258 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(287,258) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(287,258) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(287,258) = ( 287 × 258 ) / 1
LCM(287,258) = 74046 / 1
LCM(287,258) = 74046
