Lets's calculate GCF of 1851,2551
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 1851
:1,3,617,1851
Now, list down the factors of 2551
:1,2551
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1851,2551 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1851,2551 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 997,2844
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2835468
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2835468
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1851/997,2551/2844 is 1/2835468
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 997,2844 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(997,2844) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(997,2844) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(997,2844) = ( 997 × 2844 ) / 1
LCM(997,2844) = 2835468 / 1
LCM(997,2844) = 2835468
