Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4438,1036 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4438,1036 is 14.
Lets's calculate LCM of 280,983
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 275240
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 14/275240
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4438/280,1036/983 is 14/275240
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 280,983 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(280,983) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(280,983) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(280,983) = ( 280 × 983 ) / 1
LCM(280,983) = 275240 / 1
LCM(280,983) = 275240
