:1,5,13,23,65,115,299,1495
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2771,1495 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2771,1495 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 971,316
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 306836
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/306836
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2771/971,1495/316 is 1/306836
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 971,316 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(971,316) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(971,316) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(971,316) = ( 971 × 316 ) / 1
LCM(971,316) = 306836 / 1
LCM(971,316) = 306836
