Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 859,1749 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 859,1749 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 449,8839
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 3968711
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/3968711
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 859/449,1749/8839 is 1/3968711
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 449,8839 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(449,8839) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(449,8839) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(449,8839) = ( 449 × 8839 ) / 1
LCM(449,8839) = 3968711 / 1
LCM(449,8839) = 3968711
