Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4845,1987 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4845,1987 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 239,3333
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 796587
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/796587
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4845/239,1987/3333 is 1/796587
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 239,3333 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(239,3333) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(239,3333) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(239,3333) = ( 239 × 3333 ) / 1
LCM(239,3333) = 796587 / 1
LCM(239,3333) = 796587
