Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4821,5355 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4821,5355 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 201,517
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 103917
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/103917
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4821/201,5355/517 is 3/103917
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 201,517 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(201,517) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(201,517) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(201,517) = ( 201 × 517 ) / 1
LCM(201,517) = 103917 / 1
LCM(201,517) = 103917
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
