:1,11,227,2497
Now, list down the factors of 1909
:1,23,83,1909
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2497,1909 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2497,1909 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 871,948
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 825708
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/825708
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2497/871,1909/948 is 1/825708
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 871,948 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(871,948) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(871,948) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(871,948) = ( 871 × 948 ) / 1
LCM(871,948) = 825708 / 1
LCM(871,948) = 825708
