1,11,137,1507
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 57,1507 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 57,1507 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 294,5047
7 | 294, 5047 |
7 | 42, 721 |
6, 103 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 7 x 7 x 6 x 103 = 30282
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/30282
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 57/294,1507/5047 is 1/30282
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 294,5047 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(294,5047) = 49
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(294,5047) x common factors =49 x 1 = 49
LCM(294,5047) = ( 294 × 5047 ) / 49
LCM(294,5047) = 1483818 / 49
LCM(294,5047) = 30282
