:1,11,109,1199
Now, list down the factors of 2738
:1,2,37,74,1369,2738
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1199,2738 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1199,2738 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 270,641
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 173070
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/173070
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1199/270,2738/641 is 1/173070
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 270,641 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(270,641) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(270,641) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(270,641) = ( 270 × 641 ) / 1
LCM(270,641) = 173070 / 1
LCM(270,641) = 173070
