Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1838,7171 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1838,7171 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 914,7403
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6766342
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6766342
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1838/914,7171/7403 is 1/6766342
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 914,7403 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(914,7403) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(914,7403) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(914,7403) = ( 914 × 7403 ) / 1
LCM(914,7403) = 6766342 / 1
LCM(914,7403) = 6766342
