:1,2,1409,2818
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4179,2818 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4179,2818 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 373,141
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 52593
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/52593
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4179/373,2818/141 is 1/52593
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 373,141 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(373,141) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(373,141) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(373,141) = ( 373 × 141 ) / 1
LCM(373,141) = 52593 / 1
LCM(373,141) = 52593
