Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8335,4025 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8335,4025 is 5.
Lets's calculate LCM of 171,251
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 42921
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 5/42921
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8335/171,4025/251 is 5/42921
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 171,251 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(171,251) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(171,251) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(171,251) = ( 171 × 251 ) / 1
LCM(171,251) = 42921 / 1
LCM(171,251) = 42921
