Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 1647,9531 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 1647,9531 is 27.
Lets's calculate LCM of 35,377
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 13195
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 27/13195
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 1647/35,9531/377 is 27/13195
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 35,377 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(35,377) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(35,377) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(35,377) = ( 35 × 377 ) / 1
LCM(35,377) = 13195 / 1
LCM(35,377) = 13195
