Lets's calculate GCF of 2001,1426
| 23 | 2001, 1426 |
| 87, 62 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 23 = 23
Now, list down the factors of 2001
:1,3,23,29,69,87,667,2001
Now, list down the factors of 1426
:1,2,23,31,46,62,713,1426
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2001,1426 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2001,1426 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 81,572
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 46332
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/46332
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2001/81,1426/572 is 23/46332
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 81,572 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(81,572) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(81,572) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(81,572) = ( 81 × 572 ) / 1
LCM(81,572) = 46332 / 1
LCM(81,572) = 46332
