Lets's calculate GCF of 697,551
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 697
:1,17,41,697
Now, list down the factors of 551
:1,19,29,551
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 697,551 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 697,551 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 84,233
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 19572
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/19572
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 697/84,551/233 is 1/19572
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 84,233 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(84,233) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(84,233) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(84,233) = ( 84 × 233 ) / 1
LCM(84,233) = 19572 / 1
LCM(84,233) = 19572
