∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 6076
:1,2,4,7,14,28,31,49,62,98,124,196,217,434,868,1519,3038,6076
Now, list down the factors of 4071
:1,3,23,59,69,177,1357,4071
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6076,4071 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6076,4071 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 872,973
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 848456
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/848456
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6076/872,4071/973 is 1/848456
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 872,973 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(872,973) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(872,973) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(872,973) = ( 872 × 973 ) / 1
LCM(872,973) = 848456 / 1
LCM(872,973) = 848456
