Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 735,9979 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 735,9979 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 588,849
3 | 588, 849 |
196, 283 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 196 x 283 = 166404
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/166404
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 735/588,9979/849 is 1/166404
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 588,849 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(588,849) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(588,849) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(588,849) = ( 588 × 849 ) / 3
LCM(588,849) = 499212 / 3
LCM(588,849) = 166404
