Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7164,9358 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7164,9358 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 162,4241
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 687042
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/687042
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7164/162,9358/4241 is 2/687042
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 162,4241 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(162,4241) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(162,4241) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(162,4241) = ( 162 × 4241 ) / 1
LCM(162,4241) = 687042 / 1
LCM(162,4241) = 687042
