1,2,13,26,43,86,559,1118
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 65,1118 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 65,1118 is 13.
Lets's calculate LCM of 643,2949
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 1896207
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 13/1896207
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 65/643,1118/2949 is 13/1896207
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 643,2949 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(643,2949) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(643,2949) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(643,2949) = ( 643 × 2949 ) / 1
LCM(643,2949) = 1896207 / 1
LCM(643,2949) = 1896207
