:1,2,3,6,331,662,993,1986
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9797,1986 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9797,1986 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 171,770
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 131670
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/131670
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9797/171,1986/770 is 1/131670
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 171,770 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(171,770) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(171,770) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(171,770) = ( 171 × 770 ) / 1
LCM(171,770) = 131670 / 1
LCM(171,770) = 131670
