We found the factors 1816,1332 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1816,1332 is 4.
Lets's calculate LCM of 478,8743
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4179154
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 4/4179154
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1816/478,1332/8743 is 4/4179154
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 478,8743 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(478,8743) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(478,8743) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(478,8743) = ( 478 × 8743 ) / 1
LCM(478,8743) = 4179154 / 1
LCM(478,8743) = 4179154
