∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 305
:1,5,61,305
Now, list down the factors of 377
:1,13,29,377
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 305,377 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 305,377 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 23,947
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 21781
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/21781
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 305/23,377/947 is 1/21781
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 23,947 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(23,947) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(23,947) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(23,947) = ( 23 × 947 ) / 1
LCM(23,947) = 21781 / 1
LCM(23,947) = 21781
