1,7,23,41,161,287,943,6601
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 3875,6601 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 3875,6601 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 661,728
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 481208
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/481208
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 3875/661,6601/728 is 1/481208
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 661,728 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(661,728) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(661,728) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(661,728) = ( 661 × 728 ) / 1
LCM(661,728) = 481208 / 1
LCM(661,728) = 481208
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
