Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8871,8461 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8871,8461 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 567,4389
3 | 567, 4389 |
7 | 189, 1463 |
27, 209 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 27 x 209 = 118503
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/118503
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8871/567,8461/4389 is 1/118503
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 567,4389 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(567,4389) = 21
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(567,4389) x common factors =21 x 1 = 21
LCM(567,4389) = ( 567 × 4389 ) / 21
LCM(567,4389) = 2488563 / 21
LCM(567,4389) = 118503
