Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7877,2232 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7877,2232 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 986,137
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 135082
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/135082
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7877/986,2232/137 is 1/135082
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 986,137 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(986,137) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(986,137) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(986,137) = ( 986 × 137 ) / 1
LCM(986,137) = 135082 / 1
LCM(986,137) = 135082
