Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1968,2995 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1968,2995 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 137,7867
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1077779
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1077779
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1968/137,2995/7867 is 1/1077779
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 137,7867 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(137,7867) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(137,7867) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(137,7867) = ( 137 × 7867 ) / 1
LCM(137,7867) = 1077779 / 1
LCM(137,7867) = 1077779
