Now, list down the factors of 2083
:1,2083
Now, list down the factors of 1998
:1,2,3,6,9,18,27,37,54,74,111,222,333,666,999,1998
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2083,1998 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2083,1998 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 636,977
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 621372
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/621372
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2083/636,1998/977 is 1/621372
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 636,977 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(636,977) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(636,977) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(636,977) = ( 636 × 977 ) / 1
LCM(636,977) = 621372 / 1
LCM(636,977) = 621372
