:1,3539
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8378,3539 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8378,3539 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 521,787
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 410027
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/410027
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8378/521,3539/787 is 1/410027
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 521,787 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(521,787) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(521,787) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(521,787) = ( 521 × 787 ) / 1
LCM(521,787) = 410027 / 1
LCM(521,787) = 410027
