Lets's calculate GCF of 867,663
3 | 867, 663 |
17 | 289, 221 |
17, 13 |
∴ So the GCF of the given numbers is 3 x 17 = 51
Now, list down the factors of 867
:1,3,17,51,289,867
Now, list down the factors of 663
:1,3,13,17,39,51,221,663
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 867,663 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 867,663 is 51.
Lets's calculate LCM of 364,997
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 362908
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 51/362908
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 867/364,663/997 is 51/362908
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 364,997 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(364,997) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(364,997) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(364,997) = ( 364 × 997 ) / 1
LCM(364,997) = 362908 / 1
LCM(364,997) = 362908
