We found the factors 2147,9982 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2147,9982 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 989,7431
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7349259
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7349259
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2147/989,9982/7431 is 1/7349259
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 989,7431 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(989,7431) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(989,7431) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(989,7431) = ( 989 × 7431 ) / 1
LCM(989,7431) = 7349259 / 1
LCM(989,7431) = 7349259
