Now, list down the factors of 1488
:1,2,3,4,6,8,12,16,24,31,48,62,93,124,186,248,372,496,744,1488
Now, list down the factors of 2061
:1,3,9,229,687,2061
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1488,2061 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1488,2061 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 703,1277
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 897731
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/897731
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1488/703,2061/1277 is 3/897731
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 703,1277 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(703,1277) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(703,1277) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(703,1277) = ( 703 × 1277 ) / 1
LCM(703,1277) = 897731 / 1
LCM(703,1277) = 897731
