Lets's calculate GCF of 1684,2251
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 1684
:1,2,4,421,842,1684
Now, list down the factors of 2251
:1,2251
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1684,2251 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1684,2251 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 342,3575
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1222650
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1222650
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1684/342,2251/3575 is 1/1222650
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 342,3575 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(342,3575) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(342,3575) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(342,3575) = ( 342 × 3575 ) / 1
LCM(342,3575) = 1222650 / 1
LCM(342,3575) = 1222650
