Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4271,1046 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4271,1046 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 731,9551
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 6981781
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/6981781
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4271/731,1046/9551 is 1/6981781
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 731,9551 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(731,9551) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(731,9551) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(731,9551) = ( 731 × 9551 ) / 1
LCM(731,9551) = 6981781 / 1
LCM(731,9551) = 6981781
