So the greatest common factor 7609,1917 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 28,259
| 7 | 28, 259 |
| 4, 37 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 4 x 37 = 1036
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/1036
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7609/28,1917/259 is 1/1036
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 28,259 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(28,259) = 7
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(28,259) x common factors =7 x 1 = 7
LCM(28,259) = ( 28 × 259 ) / 7
LCM(28,259) = 7252 / 7
LCM(28,259) = 1036
