Lets's calculate GCF of 881,531
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Now, list down the factors of 881
:1,881
Now, list down the factors of 531
:1,3,9,59,177,531
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 881,531 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 881,531 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 71,746
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 52966
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/52966
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 881/71,531/746 is 1/52966
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 71,746 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(71,746) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(71,746) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(71,746) = ( 71 × 746 ) / 1
LCM(71,746) = 52966 / 1
LCM(71,746) = 52966
