Lets's calculate GCF of 501,385
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 501
:1,3,167,501
Now, list down the factors of 385
:1,5,7,11,35,55,77,385
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 501,385 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 501,385 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 41,847
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 34727
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/34727
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 501/41,385/847 is 1/34727
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 41,847 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(41,847) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(41,847) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(41,847) = ( 41 × 847 ) / 1
LCM(41,847) = 34727 / 1
LCM(41,847) = 34727
