Now, list down the factors of 519
:1,3,173,519
Now, list down the factors of 987
:1,3,7,21,47,141,329,987
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 519,987 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 519,987 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 67,1663
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 111421
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/111421
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 519/67,987/1663 is 3/111421
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 67,1663 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(67,1663) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(67,1663) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(67,1663) = ( 67 × 1663 ) / 1
LCM(67,1663) = 111421 / 1
LCM(67,1663) = 111421
