Lets's calculate GCF of 1359,4071
3 | 1359, 4071 |
453, 1357 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 = 3
Now, list down the factors of 1359
:1,3,9,151,453,1359
Now, list down the factors of 4071
:1,3,23,59,69,177,1357,4071
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1359,4071 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1359,4071 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 572,743
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 424996
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/424996
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1359/572,4071/743 is 3/424996
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 572,743 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(572,743) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(572,743) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(572,743) = ( 572 × 743 ) / 1
LCM(572,743) = 424996 / 1
LCM(572,743) = 424996
