:1,13,17,31,221,403,527,6851
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4870,6851 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4870,6851 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 944,231
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 218064
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/218064
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4870/944,6851/231 is 1/218064
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 944,231 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(944,231) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(944,231) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(944,231) = ( 944 × 231 ) / 1
LCM(944,231) = 218064 / 1
LCM(944,231) = 218064
