Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4397,3791 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4397,3791 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 821,493
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 404753
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/404753
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4397/821,3791/493 is 1/404753
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 821,493 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(821,493) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(821,493) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(821,493) = ( 821 × 493 ) / 1
LCM(821,493) = 404753 / 1
LCM(821,493) = 404753
