∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 755
:1,5,151,755
Now, list down the factors of 173
:1,173
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 755,173 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 755,173 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 55,861
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 47355
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/47355
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 755/55,173/861 is 1/47355
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 55,861 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(55,861) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(55,861) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(55,861) = ( 55 × 861 ) / 1
LCM(55,861) = 47355 / 1
LCM(55,861) = 47355
