Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 175,3775 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 175,3775 is 25.
Lets's calculate LCM of 659,8232
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 5424888
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 25/5424888
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 175/659,3775/8232 is 25/5424888
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 659,8232 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(659,8232) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(659,8232) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(659,8232) = ( 659 × 8232 ) / 1
LCM(659,8232) = 5424888 / 1
LCM(659,8232) = 5424888
