Now, list down the factors of 559
:1,13,43,559
Now, list down the factors of 227
:1,227
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 559,227 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 559,227 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 51,6887
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 351237
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/351237
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 559/51,227/6887 is 1/351237
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 51,6887 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(51,6887) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(51,6887) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(51,6887) = ( 51 × 6887 ) / 1
LCM(51,6887) = 351237 / 1
LCM(51,6887) = 351237
