Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1101,3558 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1101,3558 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 223,4397
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 980531
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/980531
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1101/223,3558/4397 is 3/980531
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 223,4397 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(223,4397) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(223,4397) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(223,4397) = ( 223 × 4397 ) / 1
LCM(223,4397) = 980531 / 1
LCM(223,4397) = 980531
