Now, list down the factors of 7995
:1,3,5,13,15,39,41,65,123,195,205,533,615,1599,2665,7995
Now, list down the factors of 8231
:1,8231
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7995,8231 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7995,8231 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 241,229
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 55189
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/55189
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7995/241,8231/229 is 1/55189
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 241,229 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(241,229) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(241,229) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(241,229) = ( 241 × 229 ) / 1
LCM(241,229) = 55189 / 1
LCM(241,229) = 55189
