Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5293,8746 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5293,8746 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 873,5387
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4702851
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4702851
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5293/873,8746/5387 is 1/4702851
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 873,5387 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(873,5387) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(873,5387) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(873,5387) = ( 873 × 5387 ) / 1
LCM(873,5387) = 4702851 / 1
LCM(873,5387) = 4702851
