1,883
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 541,883 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 541,883 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 936,712
2 | 936, 712 |
2 | 468, 356 |
2 | 234, 178 |
117, 89 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 2 x 2 x 2 x 117 x 89 = 83304
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/83304
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 541/936,883/712 is 1/83304
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 936,712 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(936,712) = 8
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(936,712) x common factors =8 x 1 = 8
LCM(936,712) = ( 936 × 712 ) / 8
LCM(936,712) = 666432 / 8
LCM(936,712) = 83304
