Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3255,8925 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3255,8925 is 105.
Lets's calculate LCM of 97,487
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 47239
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 105/47239
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3255/97,8925/487 is 105/47239
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 97,487 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(97,487) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(97,487) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(97,487) = ( 97 × 487 ) / 1
LCM(97,487) = 47239 / 1
LCM(97,487) = 47239
