Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 379,923 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 379,923 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 73,5173
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 377629
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/377629
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 379/73,923/5173 is 1/377629
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 73,5173 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(73,5173) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(73,5173) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(73,5173) = ( 73 × 5173 ) / 1
LCM(73,5173) = 377629 / 1
LCM(73,5173) = 377629
