Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 851,5773 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 851,5773 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 783,151
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 118233
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/118233
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 851/783,5773/151 is 23/118233
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 783,151 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(783,151) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(783,151) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(783,151) = ( 783 × 151 ) / 1
LCM(783,151) = 118233 / 1
LCM(783,151) = 118233
