:1,3,9,19,27,57,171,513
Now, list down the factors of 958
:1,2,479,958
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 513,958 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 513,958 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 87,211
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 18357
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/18357
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 513/87,958/211 is 1/18357
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 87,211 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(87,211) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(87,211) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(87,211) = ( 87 × 211 ) / 1
LCM(87,211) = 18357 / 1
LCM(87,211) = 18357
