:1,3,7,11,21,33,77,231
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 814,231 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 814,231 is 11.
Lets's calculate LCM of 171,957
3 | 171, 957 |
57, 319 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 57 x 319 = 54549
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 11/54549
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 814/171,231/957 is 11/54549
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 171,957 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(171,957) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(171,957) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(171,957) = ( 171 × 957 ) / 3
LCM(171,957) = 163647 / 3
LCM(171,957) = 54549
