1,2,13,26,149,298,1937,3874
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4373,3874 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4373,3874 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 920,187
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 172040
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/172040
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4373/920,3874/187 is 1/172040
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 920,187 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(920,187) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(920,187) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(920,187) = ( 920 × 187 ) / 1
LCM(920,187) = 172040 / 1
LCM(920,187) = 172040
