Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4471,9432 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4471,9432 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 338,227
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 76726
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/76726
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4471/338,9432/227 is 1/76726
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 338,227 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(338,227) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(338,227) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(338,227) = ( 338 × 227 ) / 1
LCM(338,227) = 76726 / 1
LCM(338,227) = 76726
