Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5603,1874 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5603,1874 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 283,238
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 67354
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/67354
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5603/283,1874/238 is 1/67354
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 283,238 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(283,238) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(283,238) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(283,238) = ( 283 × 238 ) / 1
LCM(283,238) = 67354 / 1
LCM(283,238) = 67354
