:1,11,37,407
Now, list down the factors of 219
:1,3,73,219
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 407,219 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 407,219 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 201,859
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 172659
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/172659
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 407/201,219/859 is 1/172659
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 201,859 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(201,859) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(201,859) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(201,859) = ( 201 × 859 ) / 1
LCM(201,859) = 172659 / 1
LCM(201,859) = 172659
