Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3818,1042 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3818,1042 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 428,9427
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4034756
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/4034756
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3818/428,1042/9427 is 2/4034756
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 428,9427 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(428,9427) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(428,9427) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(428,9427) = ( 428 × 9427 ) / 1
LCM(428,9427) = 4034756 / 1
LCM(428,9427) = 4034756
