We found the factors 4573,9864 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4573,9864 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 987,407
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 401709
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/401709
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4573/987,9864/407 is 1/401709
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 987,407 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(987,407) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(987,407) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(987,407) = ( 987 × 407 ) / 1
LCM(987,407) = 401709 / 1
LCM(987,407) = 401709
