1,7,1033,7231
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8610,7231 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8610,7231 is 7.
Lets's calculate LCM of 277,143
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 39611
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 7/39611
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8610/277,7231/143 is 7/39611
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 277,143 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(277,143) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(277,143) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(277,143) = ( 277 × 143 ) / 1
LCM(277,143) = 39611 / 1
LCM(277,143) = 39611
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
