Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8957,9004 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8957,9004 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 431,4447
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1916657
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1916657
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8957/431,9004/4447 is 1/1916657
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 431,4447 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(431,4447) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(431,4447) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(431,4447) = ( 431 × 4447 ) / 1
LCM(431,4447) = 1916657 / 1
LCM(431,4447) = 1916657
