:1,3,9,27,353,1059,3177,9531
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3441,9531 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3441,9531 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 631,401
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 253031
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/253031
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3441/631,9531/401 is 3/253031
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 631,401 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(631,401) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(631,401) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(631,401) = ( 631 × 401 ) / 1
LCM(631,401) = 253031 / 1
LCM(631,401) = 253031
