1,3,7,21,359,1077,2513,7539
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4011,7539 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4011,7539 is 21.
Lets's calculate LCM of 971,653
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 634063
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 21/634063
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4011/971,7539/653 is 21/634063
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 971,653 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(971,653) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(971,653) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(971,653) = ( 971 × 653 ) / 1
LCM(971,653) = 634063 / 1
LCM(971,653) = 634063
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
