Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2043,3949 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2043,3949 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 171,3617
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 618507
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/618507
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2043/171,3949/3617 is 1/618507
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 171,3617 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(171,3617) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(171,3617) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(171,3617) = ( 171 × 3617 ) / 1
LCM(171,3617) = 618507 / 1
LCM(171,3617) = 618507
