Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8981,1621 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8981,1621 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 605,1937
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1171885
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1171885
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8981/605,1621/1937 is 1/1171885
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 605,1937 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(605,1937) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(605,1937) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(605,1937) = ( 605 × 1937 ) / 1
LCM(605,1937) = 1171885 / 1
LCM(605,1937) = 1171885
