1,41,67,2747
Factors of 7971
List of positive integer factors of 7971 that divides 7971 without a remainder.
1,3,2657,7971
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 2747,7971 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 2747,7971 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 173,549
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 94977
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/94977
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 2747/173,7971/549 is 1/94977
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 173,549 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(173,549) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(173,549) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(173,549) = ( 173 × 549 ) / 1
LCM(173,549) = 94977 / 1
LCM(173,549) = 94977
