Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8470,4287 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8470,4287 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 879,879
3 | 879, 879 |
293 | 293, 293 |
1, 1 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 293 x 1 x 1 = 879
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/879
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8470/879,4287/879 is 1/879
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 879,879 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(879,879) = 879
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(879,879) x common factors =879 x 1 = 879
LCM(879,879) = ( 879 × 879 ) / 879
LCM(879,879) = 772641 / 879
LCM(879,879) = 879
