Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7977,2426 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7977,2426 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 450,961
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 432450
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/432450
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7977/450,2426/961 is 1/432450
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 450,961 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(450,961) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(450,961) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(450,961) = ( 450 × 961 ) / 1
LCM(450,961) = 432450 / 1
LCM(450,961) = 432450
