:1,11,541,5951
Now, list down the factors of 1697
:1,1697
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5951,1697 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5951,1697 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 539,1208
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 651112
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/651112
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5951/539,1697/1208 is 1/651112
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 539,1208 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(539,1208) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(539,1208) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(539,1208) = ( 539 × 1208 ) / 1
LCM(539,1208) = 651112 / 1
LCM(539,1208) = 651112
