Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2138,1826 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2138,1826 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 422,9897
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4176534
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4176534
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2138/422,1826/9897 is 2/4176534
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 422,9897 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(422,9897) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(422,9897) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(422,9897) = ( 422 × 9897 ) / 1
LCM(422,9897) = 4176534 / 1
LCM(422,9897) = 4176534
