So the greatest common factor 187,135 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 503,832
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 418496
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/418496
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 187/503,135/832 is 1/418496
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 503,832 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(503,832) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(503,832) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(503,832) = ( 503 × 832 ) / 1
LCM(503,832) = 418496 / 1
LCM(503,832) = 418496
