:1,2,3,6,7,14,21,31,42,62,93,186,217,434,651,1302
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 651,1302 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 651,1302 is 651.
Lets's calculate LCM of 551,837
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 461187
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 651/461187
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 651/551,1302/837 is 651/461187
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 551,837 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(551,837) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(551,837) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(551,837) = ( 551 × 837 ) / 1
LCM(551,837) = 461187 / 1
LCM(551,837) = 461187
