We found the factors 8741,8269 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8741,8269 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 438,407
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 178266
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/178266
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8741/438,8269/407 is 1/178266
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 438,407 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(438,407) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(438,407) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(438,407) = ( 438 × 407 ) / 1
LCM(438,407) = 178266 / 1
LCM(438,407) = 178266
