Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 838,1823 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 838,1823 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 236,4059
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 957924
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/957924
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 838/236,1823/4059 is 1/957924
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 236,4059 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(236,4059) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(236,4059) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(236,4059) = ( 236 × 4059 ) / 1
LCM(236,4059) = 957924 / 1
LCM(236,4059) = 957924
