1,3,23,69,97,291,2231,6693
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 5619,6693 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 5619,6693 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 277,837
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 231849
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/231849
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 5619/277,6693/837 is 3/231849
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 277,837 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(277,837) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(277,837) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(277,837) = ( 277 × 837 ) / 1
LCM(277,837) = 231849 / 1
LCM(277,837) = 231849
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
