:1,3,11,33,107,321,1177,3531
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5789,3531 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5789,3531 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 500,311
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 155500
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/155500
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5789/500,3531/311 is 1/155500
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 500,311 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(500,311) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(500,311) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(500,311) = ( 500 × 311 ) / 1
LCM(500,311) = 155500 / 1
LCM(500,311) = 155500
