:1,1973
Now, list down the factors of 7040
:1,2,4,5,8,10,11,16,20,22,32,40,44,55,64,80,88,110,128,160,176,220,320,352,440,640,704,880,1408,1760,3520,7040
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1973,7040 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1973,7040 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 147,323
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 47481
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/47481
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1973/147,7040/323 is 1/47481
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 147,323 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(147,323) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(147,323) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(147,323) = ( 147 × 323 ) / 1
LCM(147,323) = 47481 / 1
LCM(147,323) = 47481
