:1,11,883,9713
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7251,9713 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7251,9713 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 157,237
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 37209
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/37209
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7251/157,9713/237 is 1/37209
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 157,237 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(157,237) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(157,237) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(157,237) = ( 157 × 237 ) / 1
LCM(157,237) = 37209 / 1
LCM(157,237) = 37209
