Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 682,8587 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 682,8587 is 31.
Lets's calculate LCM of 357,2404
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 858228
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 31/858228
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 682/357,8587/2404 is 31/858228
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 357,2404 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(357,2404) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(357,2404) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(357,2404) = ( 357 × 2404 ) / 1
LCM(357,2404) = 858228 / 1
LCM(357,2404) = 858228
