Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 9971,2232 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 9971,2232 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 79,525
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 41475
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/41475
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 9971/79,2232/525 is 1/41475
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 79,525 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(79,525) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(79,525) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(79,525) = ( 79 × 525 ) / 1
LCM(79,525) = 41475 / 1
LCM(79,525) = 41475
