Now, list down the factors of 721
:1,7,103,721
Now, list down the factors of 346
:1,2,173,346
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 721,346 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 721,346 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 57,9821
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 559797
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/559797
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 721/57,346/9821 is 1/559797
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 57,9821 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(57,9821) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(57,9821) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(57,9821) = ( 57 × 9821 ) / 1
LCM(57,9821) = 559797 / 1
LCM(57,9821) = 559797
