Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 827,720 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 827,720 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 97,3523
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 341731
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/341731
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 827/97,720/3523 is 1/341731
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 97,3523 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(97,3523) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(97,3523) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(97,3523) = ( 97 × 3523 ) / 1
LCM(97,3523) = 341731 / 1
LCM(97,3523) = 341731
