Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 8947,1748 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 8947,1748 is 23.
Lets's calculate LCM of 577,718
Given numbers has no common factors except 1. So, there LCM is their product i.e 414286
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 23/414286
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 8947/577,1748/718 is 23/414286
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 577,718 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(577,718) = 1
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(577,718) x common factors =1 x 1 = 1
LCM(577,718) = ( 577 × 718 ) / 1
LCM(577,718) = 414286 / 1
LCM(577,718) = 414286
Here are some samples of GCF of Fractions calculations.
