Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7934,2231 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7934,2231 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 259,4418
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1144262
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1144262
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7934/259,2231/4418 is 1/1144262
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 259,4418 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(259,4418) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(259,4418) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(259,4418) = ( 259 × 4418 ) / 1
LCM(259,4418) = 1144262 / 1
LCM(259,4418) = 1144262
