Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2857,6882 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2857,6882 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 802,2941
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2358682
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2358682
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2857/802,6882/2941 is 1/2358682
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 802,2941 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(802,2941) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(802,2941) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(802,2941) = ( 802 × 2941 ) / 1
LCM(802,2941) = 2358682 / 1
LCM(802,2941) = 2358682
