Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3361,2521 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3361,2521 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 178,3709
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 660202
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/660202
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3361/178,2521/3709 is 1/660202
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 178,3709 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(178,3709) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(178,3709) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(178,3709) = ( 178 × 3709 ) / 1
LCM(178,3709) = 660202 / 1
LCM(178,3709) = 660202
