The factors of 1257 are 1, 3, 419, 1257
The factors of 9001 are 1, 9001
The HCF of 1257,9001 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 1257,9001
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 1257
:1,3,419,1257
Now, list down the factors of 9001
:1,9001
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1257,9001 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1257,9001 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 40,593
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 23720
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/23720
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1257/40,9001/593 is 1/23720
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 40,593 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(40,593) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(40,593) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(40,593) = ( 40 × 593 ) / 1
LCM(40,593) = 23720 / 1
LCM(40,593) = 23720
