Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2917,9621 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2917,9621 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 221,1562
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 345202
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/345202
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2917/221,9621/1562 is 1/345202
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 221,1562 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(221,1562) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(221,1562) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(221,1562) = ( 221 × 1562 ) / 1
LCM(221,1562) = 345202 / 1
LCM(221,1562) = 345202
