Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7463,2857 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7463,2857 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 934,179
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 167186
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/167186
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7463/934,2857/179 is 1/167186
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 934,179 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(934,179) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(934,179) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(934,179) = ( 934 × 179 ) / 1
LCM(934,179) = 167186 / 1
LCM(934,179) = 167186
