:1,4561
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3702,4561 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3702,4561 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 229,1975
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 452275
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/452275
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3702/229,4561/1975 is 1/452275
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 229,1975 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(229,1975) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(229,1975) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(229,1975) = ( 229 × 1975 ) / 1
LCM(229,1975) = 452275 / 1
LCM(229,1975) = 452275
