Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1163,2842 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1163,2842 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 921,1786
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1644906
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1644906
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1163/921,2842/1786 is 1/1644906
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 921,1786 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(921,1786) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(921,1786) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(921,1786) = ( 921 × 1786 ) / 1
LCM(921,1786) = 1644906 / 1
LCM(921,1786) = 1644906
