Now, list down the factors of 951
:1,3,317,951
Now, list down the factors of 513
:1,3,9,19,27,57,171,513
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 951,513 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 951,513 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 862,207
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 178434
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/178434
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 951/862,513/207 is 3/178434
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 862,207 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(862,207) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(862,207) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(862,207) = ( 862 × 207 ) / 1
LCM(862,207) = 178434 / 1
LCM(862,207) = 178434
