Now, list down the factors of 8903
:1,29,307,8903
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1937,8903 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1937,8903 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 423,3544
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1499112
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1499112
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1937/423,8903/3544 is 1/1499112
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 423,3544 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(423,3544) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(423,3544) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(423,3544) = ( 423 × 3544 ) / 1
LCM(423,3544) = 1499112 / 1
LCM(423,3544) = 1499112
