So the greatest common factor 2264,7137 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 404,1587
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 641148
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/641148
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2264/404,7137/1587 is 1/641148
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 404,1587 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(404,1587) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(404,1587) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(404,1587) = ( 404 × 1587 ) / 1
LCM(404,1587) = 641148 / 1
LCM(404,1587) = 641148
