Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6889,3532 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6889,3532 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 431,101
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 43531
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/43531
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6889/431,3532/101 is 1/43531
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 431,101 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(431,101) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(431,101) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(431,101) = ( 431 × 101 ) / 1
LCM(431,101) = 43531 / 1
LCM(431,101) = 43531
