We found the factors 17,5559 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 17,5559 is 17.
Lets's calculate LCM of 816,3119
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2545104
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 17/2545104
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 17/816,5559/3119 is 17/2545104
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 816,3119 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(816,3119) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(816,3119) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(816,3119) = ( 816 × 3119 ) / 1
LCM(816,3119) = 2545104 / 1
LCM(816,3119) = 2545104
