We found the factors 2621,8587 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2621,8587 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 356,3127
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1113212
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1113212
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2621/356,8587/3127 is 1/1113212
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 356,3127 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(356,3127) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(356,3127) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(356,3127) = ( 356 × 3127 ) / 1
LCM(356,3127) = 1113212 / 1
LCM(356,3127) = 1113212
