Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4543,1274 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4543,1274 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 46,347
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 15962
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/15962
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4543/46,1274/347 is 7/15962
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 46,347 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(46,347) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(46,347) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(46,347) = ( 46 × 347 ) / 1
LCM(46,347) = 15962 / 1
LCM(46,347) = 15962
