:1,3,5,7,15,21,35,67,105,201,335,469,1005,1407,2345,7035
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 872,7035 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 872,7035 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 304,961
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 292144
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/292144
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 872/304,7035/961 is 1/292144
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 304,961 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(304,961) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(304,961) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(304,961) = ( 304 × 961 ) / 1
LCM(304,961) = 292144 / 1
LCM(304,961) = 292144
