Now, list down the factors of 2631
:1,3,877,2631
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1727,2631 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1727,2631 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 509,8983
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4572347
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4572347
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1727/509,2631/8983 is 1/4572347
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 509,8983 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(509,8983) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(509,8983) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(509,8983) = ( 509 × 8983 ) / 1
LCM(509,8983) = 4572347 / 1
LCM(509,8983) = 4572347
