Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7138,9657 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7138,9657 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 11,643
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7073
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7073
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7138/11,9657/643 is 1/7073
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 11,643 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(11,643) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(11,643) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(11,643) = ( 11 × 643 ) / 1
LCM(11,643) = 7073 / 1
LCM(11,643) = 7073
