:1,3,5,15,197,591,985,2955
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1001,2955 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1001,2955 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 271,7109
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1926539
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1926539
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1001/271,2955/7109 is 1/1926539
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 271,7109 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(271,7109) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(271,7109) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(271,7109) = ( 271 × 7109 ) / 1
LCM(271,7109) = 1926539 / 1
LCM(271,7109) = 1926539
