Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 499,5965 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 499,5965 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 187,403
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 75361
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/75361
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 499/187,5965/403 is 1/75361
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 187,403 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(187,403) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(187,403) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(187,403) = ( 187 × 403 ) / 1
LCM(187,403) = 75361 / 1
LCM(187,403) = 75361
