Lets's calculate GCF of 8241,4612
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 8241
:1,3,41,67,123,201,2747,8241
Now, list down the factors of 4612
:1,2,4,1153,2306,4612
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8241,4612 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8241,4612 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 501,401
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 200901
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/200901
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8241/501,4612/401 is 1/200901
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 501,401 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(501,401) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(501,401) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(501,401) = ( 501 × 401 ) / 1
LCM(501,401) = 200901 / 1
LCM(501,401) = 200901
