:1,2851
Now, list down the factors of 7211
:1,7211
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2851,7211 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2851,7211 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 887,8683
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7701821
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7701821
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2851/887,7211/8683 is 1/7701821
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 887,8683 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(887,8683) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(887,8683) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(887,8683) = ( 887 × 8683 ) / 1
LCM(887,8683) = 7701821 / 1
LCM(887,8683) = 7701821
