We found the factors 8714,3987 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8714,3987 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 481,3917
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1884077
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1884077
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8714/481,3987/3917 is 1/1884077
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 481,3917 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(481,3917) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(481,3917) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(481,3917) = ( 481 × 3917 ) / 1
LCM(481,3917) = 1884077 / 1
LCM(481,3917) = 1884077
