We found the factors 397,232 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 397,232 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 9324,9697
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 90414828
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/90414828
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 397/9324,232/9697 is 1/90414828
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 9324,9697 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(9324,9697) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(9324,9697) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(9324,9697) = ( 9324 × 9697 ) / 1
LCM(9324,9697) = 90414828 / 1
LCM(9324,9697) = 90414828
