Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8357,2902 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8357,2902 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 291,8881
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2584371
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/2584371
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8357/291,2902/8881 is 1/2584371
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 291,8881 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(291,8881) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(291,8881) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(291,8881) = ( 291 × 8881 ) / 1
LCM(291,8881) = 2584371 / 1
LCM(291,8881) = 2584371
