Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1498,1005 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1498,1005 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 332,3721
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1235372
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1235372
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1498/332,1005/3721 is 1/1235372
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 332,3721 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(332,3721) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(332,3721) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(332,3721) = ( 332 × 3721 ) / 1
LCM(332,3721) = 1235372 / 1
LCM(332,3721) = 1235372
