Greatest Common Factor
We found the factors 968,8879 . The biggest common factor number is the GCF number.
So the greatest common factor 968,8879 is 1.
Lets's calculate LCM of 582,399
3 | 582, 399 |
194, 133 |
∴ So the LCM of the given numbers is 3 x 194 x 133 = 77406
Thus GCF of Fractions = GCF of Numerators/LCM of Denominators = 1/77406
Therefore, the GCF of Fractions 968/582,8879/399 is 1/77406
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 582,399 and common factors if more than two numbers have common factor, than apply into the LCM equation.
GCF(582,399) = 3
common factors(in case of two or more numbers have common factors) = 1
GCF(582,399) x common factors =3 x 1 = 3
LCM(582,399) = ( 582 × 399 ) / 3
LCM(582,399) = 232218 / 3
LCM(582,399) = 77406
