We found the factors 2357,3837 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2357,3837 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 668,941
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 628588
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/628588
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2357/668,3837/941 is 1/628588
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 668,941 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(668,941) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(668,941) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(668,941) = ( 668 × 941 ) / 1
LCM(668,941) = 628588 / 1
LCM(668,941) = 628588
