Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7404,7261 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7404,7261 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 538,183
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 98454
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/98454
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7404/538,7261/183 is 1/98454
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 538,183 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(538,183) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(538,183) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(538,183) = ( 538 × 183 ) / 1
LCM(538,183) = 98454 / 1
LCM(538,183) = 98454
