Lets's calculate GCF of 6721,2251
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 6721
:1,11,13,47,143,517,611,6721
Now, list down the factors of 2251
:1,2251
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6721,2251 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6721,2251 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 253,2088
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 528264
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/528264
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6721/253,2251/2088 is 1/528264
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 253,2088 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(253,2088) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(253,2088) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(253,2088) = ( 253 × 2088 ) / 1
LCM(253,2088) = 528264 / 1
LCM(253,2088) = 528264
