Lets's calculate GCF of 7221,2903
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 7221
:1,3,29,83,87,249,2407,7221
Now, list down the factors of 2903
:1,2903
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7221,2903 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7221,2903 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 609,121
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 73689
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/73689
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7221/609,2903/121 is 1/73689
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 609,121 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(609,121) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(609,121) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(609,121) = ( 609 × 121 ) / 1
LCM(609,121) = 73689 / 1
LCM(609,121) = 73689
