Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3691,3841 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3691,3841 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 261,503
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 131283
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/131283
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3691/261,3841/503 is 1/131283
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 261,503 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(261,503) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(261,503) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(261,503) = ( 261 × 503 ) / 1
LCM(261,503) = 131283 / 1
LCM(261,503) = 131283
