:1,3,47,61,141,183,2867,8601
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2893,8601 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2893,8601 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 217,1146
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 248682
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/248682
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2893/217,8601/1146 is 1/248682
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 217,1146 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(217,1146) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(217,1146) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(217,1146) = ( 217 × 1146 ) / 1
LCM(217,1146) = 248682 / 1
LCM(217,1146) = 248682
