1,11,673,7403
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3782,7403 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3782,7403 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 257,915
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 235155
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/235155
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3782/257,7403/915 is 1/235155
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 257,915 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(257,915) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(257,915) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(257,915) = ( 257 × 915 ) / 1
LCM(257,915) = 235155 / 1
LCM(257,915) = 235155
