Lets's calculate GCF of 1559,6831
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 1559
:1,1559
Now, list down the factors of 6831
:1,3,9,11,23,27,33,69,99,207,253,297,621,759,2277,6831
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1559,6831 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1559,6831 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 851,732
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 622932
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/622932
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1559/851,6831/732 is 1/622932
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 851,732 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(851,732) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(851,732) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(851,732) = ( 851 × 732 ) / 1
LCM(851,732) = 622932 / 1
LCM(851,732) = 622932
