Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2138,2157 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2138,2157 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 711,9134
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6494274
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6494274
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2138/711,2157/9134 is 1/6494274
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 711,9134 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(711,9134) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(711,9134) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(711,9134) = ( 711 × 9134 ) / 1
LCM(711,9134) = 6494274 / 1
LCM(711,9134) = 6494274
