1,11,19,43,209,473,817,8987
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 4872,8987 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 4872,8987 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 65,977
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 63505
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/63505
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 4872/65,8987/977 is 1/63505
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 65,977 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(65,977) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(65,977) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(65,977) = ( 65 × 977 ) / 1
LCM(65,977) = 63505 / 1
LCM(65,977) = 63505
