:1,23,233,5359
Now, list down the factors of 8563
:1,8563
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5359,8563 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5359,8563 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 232,271
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 62872
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/62872
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5359/232,8563/271 is 1/62872
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 232,271 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(232,271) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(232,271) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(232,271) = ( 232 × 271 ) / 1
LCM(232,271) = 62872 / 1
LCM(232,271) = 62872
