:1,2,421,842
Now, list down the factors of 8015
:1,5,7,35,229,1145,1603,8015
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 842,8015 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 842,8015 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 193,557
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 107501
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/107501
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 842/193,8015/557 is 1/107501
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 193,557 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(193,557) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(193,557) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(193,557) = ( 193 × 557 ) / 1
LCM(193,557) = 107501 / 1
LCM(193,557) = 107501
