:1,3,17,51,53,159,901,2703
Now, list down the factors of 1721
:1,1721
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2703,1721 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2703,1721 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 233,523
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 121859
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/121859
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2703/233,1721/523 is 1/121859
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 233,523 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(233,523) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(233,523) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(233,523) = ( 233 × 523 ) / 1
LCM(233,523) = 121859 / 1
LCM(233,523) = 121859
