The GCF of 577,241 is 1 .
LCM of 37,251 is 9287.
The greatest common factor of 577/37,241/251 = [GCF of 577,241]/[LCM of 37,251]= 1/9287
Therefore, the GCF of 577/37,241/251 is 1/9287.
To find the highest common factor of 577,241, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 577 are 1, 577
The factors of 241 are 1, 241
The HCF of 577,241 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 577,241
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 577
:1,577
Now, list down the factors of 241
:1,241
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 577,241 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 577,241 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 37,251
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 9287
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/9287
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 577/37,241/251 is 1/9287
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 37,251 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(37,251) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(37,251) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(37,251) = ( 37 × 251 ) / 1
LCM(37,251) = 9287 / 1
LCM(37,251) = 9287
