:1,3,9,27,367,1101,3303,9909
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7122,9909 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7122,9909 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 47,961
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 45167
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/45167
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7122/47,9909/961 is 3/45167
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 47,961 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(47,961) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(47,961) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(47,961) = ( 47 × 961 ) / 1
LCM(47,961) = 45167 / 1
LCM(47,961) = 45167
