Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3653,5734 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3653,5734 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 232,159
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 36888
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/36888
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3653/232,5734/159 is 1/36888
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 232,159 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(232,159) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(232,159) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(232,159) = ( 232 × 159 ) / 1
LCM(232,159) = 36888 / 1
LCM(232,159) = 36888
