So the greatest common factor 1873,4131 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 972,4288
2 | 972, 4288 |
2 | 486, 2144 |
243, 1072 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 243 x 1072 = 1041984
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1041984
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1873/972,4131/4288 is 1/1041984
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 972,4288 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(972,4288) = 4
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(972,4288) x common factors =4 x 1 = 4
LCM(972,4288) = ( 972 × 4288 ) / 4
LCM(972,4288) = 4167936 / 4
LCM(972,4288) = 1041984
