1,3,7,21,109,327,763,2289
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 838,2289 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 838,2289 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 265,7172
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1900580
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1900580
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 838/265,2289/7172 is 1/1900580
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 265,7172 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(265,7172) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(265,7172) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(265,7172) = ( 265 × 7172 ) / 1
LCM(265,7172) = 1900580 / 1
LCM(265,7172) = 1900580
