Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 6971,2660 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 6971,2660 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 131,317
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 41527
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/41527
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 6971/131,2660/317 is 1/41527
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 131,317 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(131,317) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(131,317) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(131,317) = ( 131 × 317 ) / 1
LCM(131,317) = 41527 / 1
LCM(131,317) = 41527
