Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1493,8473 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1493,8473 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 163,1601
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 260963
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/260963
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1493/163,8473/1601 is 1/260963
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 163,1601 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(163,1601) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(163,1601) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(163,1601) = ( 163 × 1601 ) / 1
LCM(163,1601) = 260963 / 1
LCM(163,1601) = 260963
