:1,2551
Now, list down the factors of 6981
:1,3,13,39,179,537,2327,6981
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2551,6981 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2551,6981 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 193,818
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 157874
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/157874
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2551/193,6981/818 is 1/157874
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 193,818 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(193,818) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(193,818) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(193,818) = ( 193 × 818 ) / 1
LCM(193,818) = 157874 / 1
LCM(193,818) = 157874
