:1,79,6241
Now, list down the factors of 9737
:1,7,13,91,107,749,1391,9737
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6241,9737 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6241,9737 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 162,745
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 120690
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/120690
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6241/162,9737/745 is 1/120690
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 162,745 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(162,745) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(162,745) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(162,745) = ( 162 × 745 ) / 1
LCM(162,745) = 120690 / 1
LCM(162,745) = 120690
