So the greatest common factor 3187,2394 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 119,3940
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 468860
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/468860
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3187/119,2394/3940 is 1/468860
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 119,3940 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(119,3940) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(119,3940) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(119,3940) = ( 119 × 3940 ) / 1
LCM(119,3940) = 468860 / 1
LCM(119,3940) = 468860
