Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2543,2173 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2543,2173 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 363,3602
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1307526
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1307526
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2543/363,2173/3602 is 1/1307526
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 363,3602 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(363,3602) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(363,3602) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(363,3602) = ( 363 × 3602 ) / 1
LCM(363,3602) = 1307526 / 1
LCM(363,3602) = 1307526
