Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9953,3500 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9953,3500 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 277,542
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 150134
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/150134
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9953/277,3500/542 is 1/150134
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 277,542 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(277,542) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(277,542) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(277,542) = ( 277 × 542 ) / 1
LCM(277,542) = 150134 / 1
LCM(277,542) = 150134
