Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8518,8706 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8518,8706 is 2.
Lets's calculate LCM of 709,3199
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 2268091
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 2/2268091
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8518/709,8706/3199 is 2/2268091
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 709,3199 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(709,3199) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(709,3199) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(709,3199) = ( 709 × 3199 ) / 1
LCM(709,3199) = 2268091 / 1
LCM(709,3199) = 2268091
