Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1493,3227 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1493,3227 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 715,1402
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1002430
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1002430
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1493/715,3227/1402 is 1/1002430
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 715,1402 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(715,1402) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(715,1402) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(715,1402) = ( 715 × 1402 ) / 1
LCM(715,1402) = 1002430 / 1
LCM(715,1402) = 1002430
