We found the factors 4733,6257 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4733,6257 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 278,461
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 128158
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/128158
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4733/278,6257/461 is 1/128158
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 278,461 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(278,461) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(278,461) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(278,461) = ( 278 × 461 ) / 1
LCM(278,461) = 128158 / 1
LCM(278,461) = 128158
