Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7387,1167 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7387,1167 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 14,883
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 12362
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/12362
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7387/14,1167/883 is 1/12362
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 14,883 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(14,883) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(14,883) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(14,883) = ( 14 × 883 ) / 1
LCM(14,883) = 12362 / 1
LCM(14,883) = 12362
