:1,5,139,695
Now, list down the factors of 2972
:1,2,4,743,1486,2972
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 695,2972 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 695,2972 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 231,2045
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 472395
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/472395
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 695/231,2972/2045 is 1/472395
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 231,2045 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(231,2045) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(231,2045) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(231,2045) = ( 231 × 2045 ) / 1
LCM(231,2045) = 472395 / 1
LCM(231,2045) = 472395
