Therefore, the GCF of 97/847,15/5251 is 1/4447597.
To find the highest common factor of 97,15, we have to find the factors of both numbers and list the highest common factor.
The factors of 97 are 1, 97
The factors of 15 are 1, 3, 5, 15
The HCF of 97,15 is 1.
Lets's calculate GCF of 97,15
∴ So GCF of numbers is 1 because of no common factors present between them.
Lets's calculate LCM of 847,5251
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4447597
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/4447597
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 97/847,15/5251 is 1/4447597
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 847,5251 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(847,5251) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(847,5251) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(847,5251) = ( 847 × 5251 ) / 1
LCM(847,5251) = 4447597 / 1
LCM(847,5251) = 4447597
