Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2171,1326 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2171,1326 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 358,877
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 313966
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/313966
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2171/358,1326/877 is 13/313966
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 358,877 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(358,877) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(358,877) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(358,877) = ( 358 × 877 ) / 1
LCM(358,877) = 313966 / 1
LCM(358,877) = 313966
