:1,2,1061,2122
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2355,2122 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2355,2122 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 262,197
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 51614
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/51614
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2355/262,2122/197 is 1/51614
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 262,197 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(262,197) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(262,197) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(262,197) = ( 262 × 197 ) / 1
LCM(262,197) = 51614 / 1
LCM(262,197) = 51614
