Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3057,7009 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3057,7009 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 409,278
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 113702
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/113702
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3057/409,7009/278 is 1/113702
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 409,278 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(409,278) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(409,278) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(409,278) = ( 409 × 278 ) / 1
LCM(409,278) = 113702 / 1
LCM(409,278) = 113702
