1,3,1427,4281
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4113,4281 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4113,4281 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 240,1789
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 429360
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/429360
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4113/240,4281/1789 is 3/429360
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 240,1789 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(240,1789) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(240,1789) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(240,1789) = ( 240 × 1789 ) / 1
LCM(240,1789) = 429360 / 1
LCM(240,1789) = 429360
