:1,7,739,5173
Now, list down the factors of 9247
:1,7,1321,9247
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5173,9247 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5173,9247 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 511,635
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 324485
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/324485
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5173/511,9247/635 is 7/324485
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 511,635 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(511,635) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(511,635) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(511,635) = ( 511 × 635 ) / 1
LCM(511,635) = 324485 / 1
LCM(511,635) = 324485
