Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6537,1270 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6537,1270 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 371,912
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 338352
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/338352
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6537/371,1270/912 is 1/338352
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 371,912 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(371,912) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(371,912) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(371,912) = ( 371 × 912 ) / 1
LCM(371,912) = 338352 / 1
LCM(371,912) = 338352
