1,3,7,13,21,39,91,273
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 331,273 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 331,273 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 1863,5899
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 10989837
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/10989837
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 331/1863,273/5899 is 1/10989837
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 1863,5899 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(1863,5899) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(1863,5899) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(1863,5899) = ( 1863 × 5899 ) / 1
LCM(1863,5899) = 10989837 / 1
LCM(1863,5899) = 10989837
