Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7463,1671 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7463,1671 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 978,3637
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3556986
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3556986
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7463/978,1671/3637 is 1/3556986
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 978,3637 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(978,3637) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(978,3637) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(978,3637) = ( 978 × 3637 ) / 1
LCM(978,3637) = 3556986 / 1
LCM(978,3637) = 3556986
