Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9437,8300 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9437,8300 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,231
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10857
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10857
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9437/47,8300/231 is 1/10857
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 47,231 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,231) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,231) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,231) = ( 47 × 231 ) / 1
LCM(47,231) = 10857 / 1
LCM(47,231) = 10857
