Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4285,5976 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4285,5976 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 397,1152
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 457344
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/457344
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4285/397,5976/1152 is 1/457344
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 397,1152 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(397,1152) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(397,1152) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(397,1152) = ( 397 × 1152 ) / 1
LCM(397,1152) = 457344 / 1
LCM(397,1152) = 457344
