Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3317,8641 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3317,8641 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 321,493
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 158253
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/158253
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3317/321,8641/493 is 1/158253
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 321,493 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(321,493) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(321,493) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(321,493) = ( 321 × 493 ) / 1
LCM(321,493) = 158253 / 1
LCM(321,493) = 158253
