1,3,9,27,269,807,2421,7263
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 735,7263 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 735,7263 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 45,311
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 13995
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/13995
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 735/45,7263/311 is 3/13995
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 45,311 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(45,311) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(45,311) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(45,311) = ( 45 × 311 ) / 1
LCM(45,311) = 13995 / 1
LCM(45,311) = 13995
