:1,3,31,93,97,291,3007,9021
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9490,9021 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9490,9021 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 973,261
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 253953
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/253953
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9490/973,9021/261 is 1/253953
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 973,261 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(973,261) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(973,261) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(973,261) = ( 973 × 261 ) / 1
LCM(973,261) = 253953 / 1
LCM(973,261) = 253953
