Lets's calculate GCF of 8401,1981
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 8401
:1,31,271,8401
Now, list down the factors of 1981
:1,7,283,1981
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8401,1981 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8401,1981 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 323,890
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 287470
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/287470
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8401/323,1981/890 is 1/287470
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 323,890 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(323,890) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(323,890) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(323,890) = ( 323 × 890 ) / 1
LCM(323,890) = 287470 / 1
LCM(323,890) = 287470
