Now, list down the factors of 8857
:1,17,521,8857
Now, list down the factors of 2711
:1,2711
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8857,2711 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8857,2711 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 761,862
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 655982
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/655982
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8857/761,2711/862 is 1/655982
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 761,862 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(761,862) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(761,862) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(761,862) = ( 761 × 862 ) / 1
LCM(761,862) = 655982 / 1
LCM(761,862) = 655982
