1,2,13,26,271,542,3523,7046
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5446,7046 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5446,7046 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 11,107
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1177
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/1177
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5446/11,7046/107 is 2/1177
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 11,107 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(11,107) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(11,107) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(11,107) = ( 11 × 107 ) / 1
LCM(11,107) = 1177 / 1
LCM(11,107) = 1177
