1,3,9,27,193,579,1737,5211
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1110,5211 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1110,5211 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 502,311
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 156122
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/156122
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1110/502,5211/311 is 3/156122
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 502,311 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(502,311) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(502,311) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(502,311) = ( 502 × 311 ) / 1
LCM(502,311) = 156122 / 1
LCM(502,311) = 156122
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
