So the greatest common factor 503,836 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 843,467
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 393681
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/393681
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 503/843,836/467 is 1/393681
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 843,467 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(843,467) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(843,467) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(843,467) = ( 843 × 467 ) / 1
LCM(843,467) = 393681 / 1
LCM(843,467) = 393681
