1,3,1091,3273
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8622,3273 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8622,3273 is 3.
Lets's calculate LCM of 97,891
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 86427
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 3/86427
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8622/97,3273/891 is 3/86427
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 97,891 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(97,891) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(97,891) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(97,891) = ( 97 × 891 ) / 1
LCM(97,891) = 86427 / 1
LCM(97,891) = 86427
