:1,47,127,5969
Now, list down the factors of 1601
:1,1601
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5969,1601 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5969,1601 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 747,533
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 398151
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/398151
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5969/747,1601/533 is 1/398151
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 747,533 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(747,533) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(747,533) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(747,533) = ( 747 × 533 ) / 1
LCM(747,533) = 398151 / 1
LCM(747,533) = 398151
