1,2,3,6,23,46,59,69,118,138,177,354,1357,2714,4071,8142
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 251,8142 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 251,8142 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 323,9885
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3192855
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3192855
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 251/323,8142/9885 is 1/3192855
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 323,9885 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(323,9885) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(323,9885) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(323,9885) = ( 323 × 9885 ) / 1
LCM(323,9885) = 3192855 / 1
LCM(323,9885) = 3192855
