Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 429,336 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 429,336 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,4563
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 187083
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/187083
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 429/41,336/4563 is 3/187083
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 41,4563 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,4563) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(41,4563) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(41,4563) = ( 41 × 4563 ) / 1
LCM(41,4563) = 187083 / 1
LCM(41,4563) = 187083
