:1,1607
Now, list down the factors of 1949
:1,1949
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1607,1949 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1607,1949 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 334,171
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 57114
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/57114
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1607/334,1949/171 is 1/57114
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 334,171 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(334,171) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(334,171) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(334,171) = ( 334 × 171 ) / 1
LCM(334,171) = 57114 / 1
LCM(334,171) = 57114
