:1,2,4,2213,4426,8852
Now, list down the factors of 3737
:1,37,101,3737
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8852,3737 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8852,3737 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 651,277
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 180327
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/180327
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8852/651,3737/277 is 1/180327
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 651,277 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(651,277) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(651,277) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(651,277) = ( 651 × 277 ) / 1
LCM(651,277) = 180327 / 1
LCM(651,277) = 180327
