Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8559,7888 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8559,7888 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 354,983
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 347982
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/347982
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8559/354,7888/983 is 1/347982
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 354,983 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(354,983) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(354,983) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(354,983) = ( 354 × 983 ) / 1
LCM(354,983) = 347982 / 1
LCM(354,983) = 347982
