Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8457,9385 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8457,9385 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 597,288
3 | 597, 288 |
199, 96 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 199 x 96 = 57312
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/57312
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8457/597,9385/288 is 1/57312
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 597,288 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(597,288) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(597,288) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(597,288) = ( 597 × 288 ) / 3
LCM(597,288) = 171936 / 3
LCM(597,288) = 57312
