We found the factors 4002,7569 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4002,7569 is 87.
Lets's calculate LCM of 186,857
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 159402
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 87/159402
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4002/186,7569/857 is 87/159402
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 186,857 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(186,857) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(186,857) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(186,857) = ( 186 × 857 ) / 1
LCM(186,857) = 159402 / 1
LCM(186,857) = 159402
