Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3198,8463 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3198,8463 is 39.
Lets's calculate LCM of 571,201
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 114771
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 39/114771
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3198/571,8463/201 is 39/114771
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 571,201 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(571,201) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(571,201) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(571,201) = ( 571 × 201 ) / 1
LCM(571,201) = 114771 / 1
LCM(571,201) = 114771
