1,7,17,23,119,161,391,2737
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5319,2737 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5319,2737 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 561,278
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 155958
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/155958
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5319/561,2737/278 is 1/155958
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 561,278 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(561,278) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(561,278) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(561,278) = ( 561 × 278 ) / 1
LCM(561,278) = 155958 / 1
LCM(561,278) = 155958
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
