Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 287,6468 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 287,6468 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 131,337
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 44147
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/44147
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 287/131,6468/337 is 7/44147
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 131,337 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(131,337) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(131,337) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(131,337) = ( 131 × 337 ) / 1
LCM(131,337) = 44147 / 1
LCM(131,337) = 44147
