1,3,9,977,2931,8793
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4467,8793 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4467,8793 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 309,241
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 74469
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/74469
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4467/309,8793/241 is 3/74469
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 309,241 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(309,241) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(309,241) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(309,241) = ( 309 × 241 ) / 1
LCM(309,241) = 74469 / 1
LCM(309,241) = 74469
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
