Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8172,4022 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8172,4022 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 303,1036
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 313908
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/313908
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8172/303,4022/1036 is 2/313908
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 303,1036 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(303,1036) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(303,1036) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(303,1036) = ( 303 × 1036 ) / 1
LCM(303,1036) = 313908 / 1
LCM(303,1036) = 313908
