:1,2,4,401,802,1604
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4287,1604 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4287,1604 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 185,528
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 97680
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/97680
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4287/185,1604/528 is 1/97680
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 185,528 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(185,528) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(185,528) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(185,528) = ( 185 × 528 ) / 1
LCM(185,528) = 97680 / 1
LCM(185,528) = 97680
