We found the factors 487,1904 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 487,1904 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 938,353
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 331114
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/331114
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 487/938,1904/353 is 1/331114
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 938,353 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(938,353) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(938,353) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(938,353) = ( 938 × 353 ) / 1
LCM(938,353) = 331114 / 1
LCM(938,353) = 331114
