Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1701,1547 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1701,1547 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 559,2737
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1529983
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/1529983
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1701/559,1547/2737 is 7/1529983
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 559,2737 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(559,2737) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(559,2737) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(559,2737) = ( 559 × 2737 ) / 1
LCM(559,2737) = 1529983 / 1
LCM(559,2737) = 1529983
