We found the factors 436,440,138 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 436,440,138 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 973,906,913
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 804844194
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/804844194
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 436/973,440/906,138/913 is 2/804844194
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 973,906,913 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(973,906,913) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(973,906,913) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(973,906,913) = ( 973 × 906 × 913 ) / 1
LCM(973,906,913) = 804844194 / 1
LCM(973,906,913) = 804844194
