Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2340,7332 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2340,7332 is 156.
Lets's calculate LCM of 263,457
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 120191
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 156/120191
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2340/263,7332/457 is 156/120191
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 263,457 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(263,457) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(263,457) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(263,457) = ( 263 × 457 ) / 1
LCM(263,457) = 120191 / 1
LCM(263,457) = 120191
