:1,2,4,7,11,13,14,22,26,28,44,52,77,91,143,154,182,286,308,364,572,1001,2002,4004
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6866,4004 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6866,4004 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 178,9369
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1667682
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1667682
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6866/178,4004/9369 is 2/1667682
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 178,9369 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(178,9369) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(178,9369) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(178,9369) = ( 178 × 9369 ) / 1
LCM(178,9369) = 1667682 / 1
LCM(178,9369) = 1667682
