So the greatest common factor 3970,8037 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 439,143
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 62777
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/62777
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3970/439,8037/143 is 1/62777
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 439,143 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(439,143) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(439,143) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(439,143) = ( 439 × 143 ) / 1
LCM(439,143) = 62777 / 1
LCM(439,143) = 62777
