Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 766,437 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 766,437 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 17,837
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 14229
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/14229
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 766/17,437/837 is 1/14229
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 17,837 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(17,837) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(17,837) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(17,837) = ( 17 × 837 ) / 1
LCM(17,837) = 14229 / 1
LCM(17,837) = 14229
