Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 496,8184 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 496,8184 is 248.
Lets's calculate LCM of 579,698
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 404142
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 248/404142
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 496/579,8184/698 is 248/404142
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 579,698 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(579,698) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(579,698) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(579,698) = ( 579 × 698 ) / 1
LCM(579,698) = 404142 / 1
LCM(579,698) = 404142
