Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 187,3071 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 187,3071 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 715,4171
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2982265
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2982265
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 187/715,3071/4171 is 1/2982265
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 715,4171 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(715,4171) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(715,4171) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(715,4171) = ( 715 × 4171 ) / 1
LCM(715,4171) = 2982265 / 1
LCM(715,4171) = 2982265
