Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8605,6609 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8605,6609 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 253,1431
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 362043
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/362043
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8605/253,6609/1431 is 1/362043
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 253,1431 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(253,1431) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(253,1431) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(253,1431) = ( 253 × 1431 ) / 1
LCM(253,1431) = 362043 / 1
LCM(253,1431) = 362043
