:1,2,1321,2642
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3363,2642 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3363,2642 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 841,871
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 732511
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/732511
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3363/841,2642/871 is 1/732511
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 841,871 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(841,871) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(841,871) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(841,871) = ( 841 × 871 ) / 1
LCM(841,871) = 732511 / 1
LCM(841,871) = 732511
