Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3055,1487 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3055,1487 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 107,228
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 24396
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/24396
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3055/107,1487/228 is 1/24396
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 107,228 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(107,228) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(107,228) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(107,228) = ( 107 × 228 ) / 1
LCM(107,228) = 24396 / 1
LCM(107,228) = 24396
