:1,7,11,43,77,301,473,3311
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1037,3311 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1037,3311 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 857,516
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 442212
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/442212
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1037/857,3311/516 is 1/442212
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 857,516 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(857,516) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(857,516) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(857,516) = ( 857 × 516 ) / 1
LCM(857,516) = 442212 / 1
LCM(857,516) = 442212
