Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3417,2814 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3417,2814 is 201.
Lets's calculate LCM of 368,961
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 353648
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 201/353648
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3417/368,2814/961 is 201/353648
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 368,961 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(368,961) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(368,961) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(368,961) = ( 368 × 961 ) / 1
LCM(368,961) = 353648 / 1
LCM(368,961) = 353648
