So the greatest common factor 7048,9585 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 838,837
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 701406
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/701406
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7048/838,9585/837 is 1/701406
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 838,837 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(838,837) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(838,837) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(838,837) = ( 838 × 837 ) / 1
LCM(838,837) = 701406 / 1
LCM(838,837) = 701406
