Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 792,267 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 792,267 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 173,203
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 35119
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/35119
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 792/173,267/203 is 3/35119
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 173,203 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(173,203) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(173,203) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(173,203) = ( 173 × 203 ) / 1
LCM(173,203) = 35119 / 1
LCM(173,203) = 35119
