We found the factors 9775,8211 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9775,8211 is 391.
Lets's calculate LCM of 21,957
3 | 21, 957 |
7, 319 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 7 x 319 = 6699
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 391/6699
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9775/21,8211/957 is 391/6699
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 21,957 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(21,957) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(21,957) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(21,957) = ( 21 × 957 ) / 3
LCM(21,957) = 20097 / 3
LCM(21,957) = 6699
