∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 5 x 17 = 85
Now, list down the factors of 8500
:1,2,4,5,10,17,20,25,34,50,68,85,100,125,170,250,340,425,500,850,1700,2125,4250,8500
Now, list down the factors of 1105
:1,5,13,17,65,85,221,1105
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8500,1105 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8500,1105 is 85.
Lets's calculate LCM of 517,471
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 243507
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 85/243507
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8500/517,1105/471 is 85/243507
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 517,471 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(517,471) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(517,471) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(517,471) = ( 517 × 471 ) / 1
LCM(517,471) = 243507 / 1
LCM(517,471) = 243507
