Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1056,1673 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1056,1673 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 971,3337
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3240227
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3240227
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1056/971,1673/3337 is 1/3240227
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 971,3337 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(971,3337) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(971,3337) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(971,3337) = ( 971 × 3337 ) / 1
LCM(971,3337) = 3240227 / 1
LCM(971,3337) = 3240227
