Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2541,3177 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2541,3177 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 815,8362
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6815030
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/6815030
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2541/815,3177/8362 is 3/6815030
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 815,8362 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(815,8362) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(815,8362) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(815,8362) = ( 815 × 8362 ) / 1
LCM(815,8362) = 6815030 / 1
LCM(815,8362) = 6815030
