1,3,29,31,87,93,899,2697
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 7772,2697 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 7772,2697 is 29.
Lets's calculate LCM of 19,261
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 4959
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 29/4959
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 7772/19,2697/261 is 29/4959
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 19,261 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(19,261) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(19,261) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(19,261) = ( 19 × 261 ) / 1
LCM(19,261) = 4959 / 1
LCM(19,261) = 4959
