1,23,113,2599
Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8721,2599 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8721,2599 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 628,445
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 279460
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/279460
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8721/628,2599/445 is 1/279460
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 628,445 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(628,445) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(628,445) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(628,445) = ( 628 × 445 ) / 1
LCM(628,445) = 279460 / 1
LCM(628,445) = 279460
