1,967
Factors of 3997
List of positive integer factors of 3997 that divides 3997 without a remainder.
1,7,571,3997
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 967,3997 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 967,3997 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 887,8703
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 7719561
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/7719561
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 967/887,3997/8703 is 1/7719561
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 887,8703 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(887,8703) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(887,8703) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(887,8703) = ( 887 × 8703 ) / 1
LCM(887,8703) = 7719561 / 1
LCM(887,8703) = 7719561
