Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5007,1902 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5007,1902 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 157,4197
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 658929
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/658929
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5007/157,1902/4197 is 3/658929
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 157,4197 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(157,4197) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(157,4197) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(157,4197) = ( 157 × 4197 ) / 1
LCM(157,4197) = 658929 / 1
LCM(157,4197) = 658929
