We found the factors 6983,1171 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6983,1171 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 255,3299
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 841245
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/841245
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6983/255,1171/3299 is 1/841245
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 255,3299 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(255,3299) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(255,3299) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(255,3299) = ( 255 × 3299 ) / 1
LCM(255,3299) = 841245 / 1
LCM(255,3299) = 841245
