Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 337,438 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 337,438 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 302,867
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 261834
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/261834
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 337/302,438/867 is 1/261834
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 302,867 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(302,867) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(302,867) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(302,867) = ( 302 × 867 ) / 1
LCM(302,867) = 261834 / 1
LCM(302,867) = 261834
